The Webedia group launched Monday evening February 3 the LIVE, new hybrid media halfway between a web TV and a social network, "live and interactive". But the launch did not go as planned, according to a slew of Internet users who expressed their disappointment on different social networks.

Technical concerns disturbed the broadcast: sound and connection problems. But above all the program was banned from the Twitch channel, the main broadcast channel, after only a few hours, for using the word "nigger", otherwise known in the United States "n-word", to avoid pronouncing the word "negro" in French.

To sum up, they got kicked out of Twitch after three hours for saying the n-word. Among others.

Other netizens have pointed questionable jokes, like that of Gérard Baste, rapper and television presenter, who wanted to offer a "little beef" to Kobe Bryant, American basketball player who died at the end of January in a helicopter accident , announcing "it will be Kobe beef".

While the LIVE wants to bring together both YouTube stars - Norman, Cyprien, Hugo Décrypte - and personalities from television - Agathe Auproux, Kevin Razy or Thomas Thouroude - promising promising "a style and a freedom of tone that renew audiovisual codes ", many internet users have criticized a concept that remakes television" with its old codes ".

1️⃣ Where LeStream or Radio Sex have been brilliant in their respective formats, is that they have a free radio spirit, original profiles, subjects that bring together, from the background. Fond d'Accropolis manages wonderfully. With LeLive, they wanted to make TV, with its old codes.
