Canal+ Syndicate Criticizes Zemmour Book Adaptation
The adaptation of Eric Zemmour's controversial book into a documentary series has sparked criticism from a Canal+ syndicate over ideological concerns.
- A Canal+ syndicate, +Libres, has expressed regret over the company's decision to adapt Eric Zemmour's book 'Le suicide français' into a documentary series.
- The syndicate argues that the project aligns the company with ideological views that do not reflect its business objectives, especially during a significant period in its history.
- The adaptation is being developed for Planète+, a Canal+ channel, and was confirmed by the group earlier this week.
- Canal+ is part of Vivendi, which is planning a major corporate restructuring that will be voted on in December, potentially leading to its stock market debut.
- Eric Zemmour, a far-right political figure, has previously run for presidency and leads the Reconquête! movement, which has seen limited electoral success.
