SNCF's Refusal to Advertise Bardella's Book Sparks Censorship Debate

The SNCF's advertising arm cites neutrality policy in rejecting ads for Jordan Bardella's book, igniting accusations of political bias.

Jordan Bardella's book, 'Ce que je cherche,' will not be advertised in French train stations due to SNCF's neutrality policy.
The decision has led to allegations of censorship, with Bardella and allies claiming political bias against right-wing figures.
Mediatransports, the SNCF's advertising agency, argues that promoting a current political leader's book violates neutrality principles.
Critics, including Eric Ciotti, suggest a double standard, citing past advertisements for books by other political figures like Sarkozy and Royal.
The controversy has amplified media attention on Bardella's book, potentially increasing its public visibility ahead of its November 9 release.
