Comedians who will have total freedom of expression, but with increased vigilance, as confirmed by Jean-Luc Lemoine: “
Today, comedians have a responsibility.
We must assume it and prepare to justify ourselves.
Before, we had state censorship, now it's public censorship,

It bothers me when you take a sentence out of context to make it into a shabby buzz
," explains Jean-Luc Lemoine.
It is often incredibly intellectually dishonest!
I forbid myself nothing.

Finally, Jean-Luc Lemoine talks about his colleagues whose appearances as columnists are increasing - Bertrand Chameroy, Philippe Caverivière, Sandrine Sarroche, Mathieu Madénian... - in the media.

Marc Toesca to bring people along with us.
It's temporary but we'll do our best.
We are already happy to gather a million viewers
