Eric Naulleau defends his presence at the first meeting of Eric Zemmour

The arrival of Eric Naulleau at the meeting of Eric Zemmour in Villepinte on Sunday did not go unnoticed.

Many have wondered, most often with irony, about his presence in the front row, next to the former adviser of Jean-Marie Le Pen, Lorrain de Saint Affrique, and not far from the most illustrious opponent of the PACS and at marriage for all, Christine Boutin.

Thus, Jean-Michel Apathie recalled, in a tweet, the friendship which binds the two former recruits of Laurent Ruquier, adding that he "hopes that he will go on stage to speak".

Alexis Corbière, FI deputy and spokesperson for Jean-Luc Mélenchon, for his part described Eric Naulleau as "pitiful": "After having published a book with an anti-Semitic neo-Nazi, [Naulleau] is this evening in the 1st row of the meeting of Zemmour alongside the former secretary of Le Pen and Ms. Boutin.

The same will take offense at being called a fascist, insult the IF and claim to be on the left.

"It is to him that the columnist and author delivered his most scathing answer, explaining that he" prefers to do my work as a journalist in the front row of a meeting rather than to accomplish my work as a collaborator in the front row. 'an Islamist demonstration like Mr. Corbière and his friends ”.

Still well placed

Since this response, other journalists have then wondered for which media Eric Naulleau was present at the first campaign meeting of Eric Zemmour. It is therefore for the program of Cyril Hanouna,

, on C8, the former employer of the far-right candidate, that he went there. “As expected, exclusive report tonight in

. It will not be long, still a little patience, I feel you feverish ", retorted Eric Naulleau, who also reserved a spade to Jean-Michel Apathie, finding it" interesting "that we can" attend the meeting of 'Eric Zemmour without being one of his supporters ”.

Perhaps we then witnessed on Sunday what the former

journalist, who

became a presidential candidate,

denounced

in his speech, that is to say a certain proximity between power and the media.

As stated by Jérémie Michel, spokesperson for Jurists with Zemmour and member of the Friends of Eric Zemmour, on Twitter, Eric Naulleau "came as a friend of Eric Zemmour and political columnist", photo all smiles at support.

It is clear that the journalists who came to cover the demonstration were not seated in the first row (nor in the second).

Some were insulted and pushed around, such as the

team

, exfiltrated before being able to return to the room 30 minutes later.

An atmosphere reminiscent of the rallies organized across the Atlantic by Donald Trump who also targeted journalists when he was on stage, resulting in real physical violence from his supporters in the rows .

One difference to remember all the same: Donald Trump was not a journalist but the host of a reality TV show,

, before standing for election, unlike Eric Zemmour.
