VIDEO – Under the pretext of a controversy surrounding an interview with Patrick Poivre d'Arvor, pianist and autistic sufferer from Asperger's syndrome William Theviot managed to talk about his commitment to disability in front of viewers of "Touche pas à my job".


Busy program this Thursday, March 16 in “Do not touch my post”.

Elisabeth Borne used the famous article 49.3 for the pension reform.

A current event dealt with later in the show.

The last part of the summary will, once again, be devoted to the Pierre Palmade affair, despite the dissatisfaction of certain viewers.

Before that, the C8 talk received William Theviot pianist, speaker and autistic suffering from Asperger's syndrome.

The musician interviewed in a video published a few days ago on his YouTube channel Patrick Poivre d'Arvor.

An initiative that has earned him many virulent criticism from Internet users, to the point that he is now the victim of online harassment.

The guest initially seemed uncomfortable on the impressive set of "TPMP" and declared after the presentation of the subject:

"Above all, I would like to say that the angle of debate by which I was invited is extremely difficult to unravel.

I am not a polemicist, I am not familiar with the exercise of media communication, I am a pianist and I am committed to the cause of Asperger's autism and disability, in particular invisible

.

Cyril Hanouna tries to guide his guest on this famous PPDA interview which creates controversy.

The former TF1 JT presenter is currently accused by several women of sexual assault and rape and the fact that William Theviot does not address the subject in his video is shocking.

"I'm going to make a confession to you"

But the musician keeps his course and declares live:

“I'm going to make a confession to you, that's what I'm going to talk about.

I don't know how you're going to take it

. "

He then sets out autism and the exclusion from which people who suffer from it suffer.

“I know that you have audience requirements, but I think that talking about autism, their representativeness in culture and the media, can be more socially constructive than talking about that”, this

time , he refers to the controversy surrounding his video with Patrick Poivre d'Arvor.

Despite tremolos in his voice and visible nervousness, William Theviot continues his committed advocacy, using the show's usual codes.

“Afterwards, I don't want to take you as a traitor, you can ask your followers on Twitter to find out what they prefer as a subject,”

he assures.

“How far do you have to go to talk about disability on a TV set?

That's where I'm at"

states William Theviot before adding that

"it's extremely difficult to talk about it when it's not sequences that make the buzz, when it's not the month of autism”

.

Faced with this determination, Cyril Hanouna then decides to abandon his original subject to let him speak.

The banner that displayed so far

"PPDA comes out of silence in an interview: William who interviewed him, has been criticized since... He explains himself"

is modified.

We can now read:

“William's punchy testimony on the lack of consideration of autistic people in the media”

.

A few accepted tears

A decision hailed by the musician who has succeeded, for the good cause:

"In itself, I like you because you let these people speak while in the major media, I challenge them to count the articles they've done that talks about autism, even media that claims to be respectable and put on airs.

I think it's outrageous

. "

Overwhelmed by emotion William Theviot will end his speech with a few tears, assumed:

"Perhaps I am making myself ridiculous, but if it can save a few heads, it is not for nothing that I will have come, even if I break my image here and that I cry about it, we must save these people"
