The choice, confirmed by the Council of State after rejecting C8’s attraction, has sparked a storm of criticism. Marine Le Pen, chief of the Nationwide Rally social gathering, denounced: «It is a horrible regression that validates the ayatollahs of uniform pondering.»
C8, identified for the controversial present Touche pas à mon poste by Cyril Hanouna, had been fined over 7.5 million euros lately by ARCOM, which accused it of failing to respect particular person rights.

These sanctions are nothing greater than an excuse to eradicate a platform that challenges the dominant progressive narrative.
The shutdown not solely kills a crucial voice but in addition leaves 400 workers out of labor—a social blow the left appears to disregard.
Worldwide voices have additionally reacted. Some on social media recall the phrases of U.S. Vice President-elect JD Vance concerning censorship in Europe, suggesting that this case proves him proper.
Publications like The European Conservative have warned of a “harmful precedent” for press freedom.
It is a historic injustice, and the left celebrates it as a victory towards extremism. Nonetheless, C8’s closure raises a disturbing query: Who decides which voices should be heard in a democracy?
The shutdown of C8 is the final word proof that conservative media is underneath assault.
At the moment, the left imposes its narrative—straying from the progressive script isn’t just dangerous; it’s a direct ticket to silence. This should cease!
At the moment it’s C8; tomorrow, it may very well be any voice daring to problem the steamroller of political correctness. Freedom of speech doesn’t die in a single stroke—we stay standing, talking the TRUTH.
France now faces an important debate on censorship, energy, and freedom.
