Co-founder of Modern World, entrepreneur in the media sector, Alexis Poulin has worked for many public institutions. Expert in European affairs, he is regularly invited by audiovisual media such as France 24, France Info, or Arte. The banning of the Russian channel RT in France, on which he officiated as an editorial writer, led us to invite him for an “Essential interview”: what is information? How is it treated? What is the job of a journalist? How are the media directed? So many questions raised with a free spirit:
If disinformation exists, Alexis Poulin also explains to us the “misinformation”, which he fights: the missing important information, voluntarily hidden by the media who choose to keep it quiet.
On the evolution of journalism, Alexis Poulin takes a severe look, while the majority of the press has long since ceased to be a fourth power. As proof, none of the recent cases such as the Benalla affair or the Ferrand affair have really upset the idyllic media narrative on the political action of President Macron, who since the start of his mandate has chosen to place the information under control. From then on, everything was possible, and the closure of RT France is only the result of “propaganda and deliberate censorship” by the President of the Republic.
Pluralism, opinion-making, collusion with politics: the essential interview, with journalist Alexis Poulin.
