It will dry up the recovery.
According to L'Equipe, Pierre Ménès will not participate in the "Canal Football Club" this Sunday, the Sunday program of Canal + of which he is the star columnist.
The sports journalist told his superiors that he did not want to be on the set and needed a rest.
According to the sports daily, the management of Canal + did not want him to return to the air for the first "CFC" since his questioning in the wake of the broadcast of the documentary "I am not a slut, I am a journalist ”by Marie Portolano a week ago.
Scenes, cut during the editing, confronted Pierre Ménès with his behavior towards women, he who was accused of having lifted Marie Portolano's skirt on the set of the “CFC” in 2016 and of having forced the journalist Isabelle Moreau to a kiss, on the same show, at the start of the last decade.
The encrypted channel has since opened an internal investigation into him.

Pierre Ménès apologized in two stages.
A first time a week ago in the C8 show “Touche pas à mon poste” where he also lamented that “today, it's #MeToo we can no longer do or say anything”.
Once again this Monday, where he said on Twitter to regret “without any ambiguity all these gestures”.

The charges against Pierre Ménès had prompted a tweet from the Interior Ministry which recalled the penalty incurred for sexual assault.
EA Sports, the publisher of the “Fifa” video game, told him that the journalist would be banned from future comments on the game.
