Recently convicted of sexual assault and reduced to his only YouTube channel, Pierre Ménès is thinking of stopping everything.
At nearly 60 years old, Pierre Ménès has made a first meaningful decision. The former Canal Football Club polemicist has indeed decided to leave Paris to settle for good in La Baule. But another drastic decision could follow. The journalist is also thinking of retiring. Consequence of a career stopped for two years and the controversy that accompanied the broadcast of I’m not a bitch, I’m a journalist.
This documentary by Marie Portolano, devoted to sexism in the sports media, had highlighted certain inappropriate behavior by Pierre Ménès, in particular against him or with Isabelle Moreau. In the process, Canal + had decided to take him away from the antenna before thanking him a few months later. He had tried to launch his own site, but quickly had to settle for his only YouTube channel with 40,000 subscribers, where he continues to deliver his view of football.
But his recent setbacks and in particular his two-month suspended sentence for a sexual assault that occurred in 2018 on a saleswoman could encourage him to say stop. This is at least what he suggested in the columns of the Journal de Dimanche. “No one wanted to invest in the name of someone in custody anymore. That, I can understand. I have nothing at all today, except my YouTube channel. It’s almost out of friendship for the people who love me that I continue. But I’m almost 60, maybe it’s time to retire.” he thus let go, not hiding his bitterness.
