We didn't know if it was bacon or pork. Well know that Bertrand Chameroy, columnist for C à Vous on France 5, is a die-hard. Even in the bullshit. And we love it. In the November 4 broadcast, he indicated that he did not have enough budget to send a team to cover the American elections in the US. In return, he would focus on the “Armorican elections” in Morlaix. Why the viaduct city? It's quite vague. A priori, the idea came out of the hat at the start of the school year in September. A valve? A challenge? Still, the Nice guy kept his word, the guy.
Joe Diben and fake ballot
This Tuesday, November 5, journalists Joseph Magdelaine and Émeric Fabié-Gayraud surveyed the area, American flags in one hand, cell phone in the other, to film… anyone and anything. “We have known for 15 days that we are coming to Morlaix. It was convenient: three hours by train from Paris. It gets us out and it feels good,” says the first. And to specify, in case we have not understood, that they are in parody, often in response to BFM and other continuous news channels, which brought out the heavy artillery to cover the Trump duel- Harris.
A light, humorous subject on the American elections, that's a change. It gives a nice image of the territory. And then it feels good to laugh a little.
After a fascinating meeting with Joe, from Diben, in Plougasnou (Joe Diben, do you have it?), they organized a fake election in front of the town hall of Morlaix. But with a real ballot box from the town hall. Voters had to answer two questions: Harris or Trump? Sweet butter or salted butter? As much on the first question, there was, it seems, a doubt about the outcome of the vote (“fake news”, there were only Harris ballots, Editor's note), as on the second, it was not a fold. Because it is common knowledge that any Morlaisian who eats unsalted butter in public automatically has his or her “green card” withdrawn. He is also expelled to Rennes by the mayor, Jean-Paul Vermot, who played the game of the totally offbeat interview for C à Vous.
« Team Maëlla Harris »
“I was contacted by email Monday evening. Their approach is parodic but not mocking, so I said yes. A light, humorous subject on the American elections, that's a change. It gives a nice image of the territory. And then it feels good to laugh a little,” comments the councilor. Who admitted to being part of the “Maëlla Harris team”, suddenly becoming Breton.
After an express evening trip to Côtes-d'Armor to film the Harris Briochin factory, obviously transformed into Kamala's HQ, the tribulations of the duo of journalists from France 5 continue today in Saint-Martin-des Champs, Roscoff and Carantec. It's vaguely about the White House, microfoutoir in French, English and Franglais, but also fake live sets and golf. The live broadcast of the “Armorican election” was to be broadcast in two parts (one Tuesday evening, the other this Wednesday evening) in Bertrand Chameroy's ABC, in C à Vous, on France 5. To whom we suggest to follow the next menhir throwing world championship in Guerlesquin. A traditional sport in Armorican soil.
