Present on the set of Touche pas à mon poste Monday November 4, 2024 on C8, political scientist Thomas Guénolé was sharply reframed live by Cyril Hanouna for having criticized one of the polls set up by the show's teams on the social networks.
Absent from the air on Friday November 1, 2024 due to a public holiday. Cyril Hanouna was back on C8 on Monday November 4, 2024, at the helm of a new issue of Touche pas à mon poste. That day, the host was once again surrounded by his faithful columnists. Among them, we can notably cite Guillaume Genton, Raymond Aabou, Géraldine Maillet, Isabelle Morini-Bosc, Gilles Verdez, Kelly Védovelli. Or even Thomas Guénolé.
Recruited by Cyril Hanouna only a few weeks ago. The political scientist quickly established himself in Touche pas à mon poste. As proof, he is present almost daily in the program. Regularly having differences of opinion with other columnists. Thomas Guénolé also does not hesitate to oppose Cyril Hanouna.
Cyril Hanouna to Thomas Guénolé: “I have rarely seen someone who knew nothing about anything”
The political scientist notably expressed his disagreement with a survey set up by the Touche pas à mon poste teams. In fact, the production asked Internet users on social networks if they agreed to tighten the rules concerning foreigners in France. More than 95% were in favor. “You already know what I think about the sample“, then launched Thomas Guénolé to Cyril Hanouna.
The host immediately saw red, believing that his columnist had lacked respect for C8 viewers. “This is called sampling bias“, defended the political scientist. “No way !” Cyril Hanouna immediately replied. “Thomas Guénolé, you know everything about everything! (…) I have rarely seen someone who knew nothing about anything“, then launched the presenter, visibly upset.
Thomas Guénolé: “You remind me of Scaramouche in Comedia Del Arte”
“I've seen guys, I've seen chroniclers.
But guys who don't know anything about anything like him! Honestly, it's crazy“, also exclaimed Cyril Hanouna. “Keep going but it's going to be pretty hard to argue“, however, replied Thomas Guénolé, visibly sure of his fact. The political scientist even took the liberty of pretending to play the mandolin while the host spoke.
“You have who you remind me of, Scaramouche in Comedia Del Arte“, then launched the columnist. “I don't know who it is and I don't give a damn“, retorted Cyril Hanouna, before persisting: “You insulted 96% of people“. “No 96% of the sample and I didn't insult them. I said they were not representative of the French“, insisted Thomas Guénolé.
