The National Audiovisual Institute (INA) announces that it will launch its own political program in 2022.
A program that will be available on its website and will confront the presidential candidates with the very numerous INA archives, in order to shed new light on the electoral campaign.
Images from the past to understand the present and choose for the future.
This is the bet made by the National Audiovisual Institute (INA) by announcing the launch of its own political program in 2022. A program which will receive the presidential candidates and will be based on the archives of INA.
It is its president Laurent Vallet who unveils the creation of this program to our colleagues from the newspaper
Le Figaro
.
His name and his presenter, a political journalist, remain secret for the moment.
This new program will be available on the INA website.

22 million hours of archived images and sounds
This political program will be "an unprecedented format which will confront the candidates with numerous archives in connection with their proposals or their personal career", specifies Laurent Vallet in
Figaro
.
He specifies that it will not be a question of "pouring into the anecdote, but of bringing a different light".
And there will be material: INA has the largest catalog of digitized audiovisual content in the world: 22 million hours of images and sounds.
"This immense reservoir of archives has value only if it is shared. It must be seen by all audiences," said Laurent Vallet.
