According to The Parisianthe presenter of “20h Brunet” will give way to the former columnist of “C à vous” who has become a figure in the continuous news channel.

LCI war prize, Eric Brunet has hosted the evening slot on BFMTV from 8 p.m. to 10 p.m. since the start of the school year in September. A particularly competitive segment, in which CNews reigns today. According to information from Parisian after only four months on the air, the host will leave his place at the end of December.

It will be replaced, according to our colleagues, by Maxime Switek . After having hosted the evenings of the continuous news channel, the former journalist of “C à vous” presents the morning slot from 9 a.m. to noon. The name of the person who will replace him at this time is not yet known.

His departing co-host

As pointed out The Parisian this decision could be linked to the discontent displayed by the new owner Rodolphe Saadé in the face of the mixed results of BFMTV. The specialized media La Lettre reported this. The show hosted by Éric Brunet, with 215,000 viewers on average, supplants LCI but is well behind Pascal Praud's “L'heure des pros 2” on CNews.

This casting change comes shortly after Alice Darfeuille, co-host of “20 Heures Brunet”, expressed the desire to let go of the controls of the show.

Before being joined by Éric Brunet, this journalist who worked for iTélé alone hosted the 8:30 p.m. to 10 p.m. slot left vacant by Laurent Ruquier. The figure of “Grosses Têtes” had abandoned this difficult hut in December 2023, which Éric Brunet in turn left.
