Darius Rochebin, who hosts “18H Darisu Rochebin” every Sunday on LCI, has he just lost one of his columnists? In any case, this is what this extremely violent extract from an altercation between the two men suggests. A clash like we have rarely seen in the show which mainly addresses political and societal subjects.
Did we witness this Sunday, January 19, the end of a collaboration between Luc Ferry and Darius Rochebin? In any case, this is what this extract from the 18H Darius Rochebina political debate show broadcast every Sunday on LCI in which journalist Darius Rochebin receives a French or international personality making current events. The interviews are conducted in a spirit of openness to all areas and diversity of opinions. What follows is the duel of ideas, which pits Luc Ferry against Daniel Cohn-Bendit. And it was precisely during this sequence revealed around 6:50 p.m. that Luc Ferry lost his temper with the host of the program. A scene which has already made the rounds of TV zappings and which could well mark the end of the professional collaboration between the French essayist and politician and the channel which for a few more weeks displays TNT channel 26.
As the show was preparing to go on air, Darius Rochebin, who had been exonerated following accusations of sexual assault, commented in particular on the images of the release of three Israeli hostages by Hamas, in the context of of the ceasefire between the Israeli army and the Palestinian Islamist movement in the Gaza Strip. While Daniel Cohn-Bendit mentioned the age of Mahmoud Abbas, president of the Palestinian Authority, Luc Ferry responded by comparing him to Hitler. “He is no better than Hitler”he declared in particular on camera. “Let’s not exaggerate anything”Darius Rochebin hastened to retort. And for the philosophy professor to respond: “No, I'm not exaggerating at all, it's crime against humanity after crime against humanity.” “Come on, let's remove the comparison with Hitler please”the journalist still insisted in front of his visibly very upset colleague. “No, I'm definitely not removing it, you can remove it if you like, but I'm not removing it under any circumstances.” What the journalist finally decided by saying: “I’ll take it off for you.”
That's enough Darius, I tell you that's enough

And to the columnist to retort, extremely sharply: “Wait, you stop there! That's enough Darius, I'm telling you that's enough. I'm not taking anything away and you're not taking anything away for me. You're not adding anything and you're not taking anything away for me. That's enough because otherwise I'm leaving the set. You don’t have to say things like that to me, it’s unbearable!” A departure like we had rarely seen in 18H Darius Rochebin, which ultimately ended with a final clarification from Ferry: “You don't have to lecture me on morality. I can't stand your unbearable remarks anymore (…) If we can't speak freely here, there's no point in making a show (…) We're simply asking you to stay in your place.” To which the targeted principal responded: “Also stay in your place and stay proper. Thank you.” We would then have thought that the clash was coming to an end but Luc Ferry then walked off the set with these few words which still say a lot about his future on the show: “And I’m stopping this show, it’s over!”
