While she received journalist Léa Salamé in “C à vous” on France 5 this Wednesday, January 3, Anne-Elisabeth Lemoine returned to the sexism that she believes she experiences in her show.

Although there is progress, sexism is still very present in our society, particularly on television, as Anne-Elisabeth Lemoine testifies. While she received Léa Salamé on Wednesday January 3 in the show “C à vous” on France 5, the two journalists gave their opinion on the presence of sexism on TV sets, reports TV Magazine.

“Do you think there’s still a lot of sexism?” asked Léa Salamé to Anne-Élisabeth Lemoine. The latter gave a straightforward response: “Oh well yes, there are plenty of times on this set where we respond to Patrick or Pierre and not to me. It’s almost once a week, she said. revealed, before ironically: “Perhaps it’s because I’m really incompetent, but it’s perhaps also because men consider women journalists to be incompetent.”

“We have seen a revolution in ten years”

Léa Salamé, for her part, gave a slightly more nuanced speech. She initially admits to having been a victim of sexism in the past: “I felt that a lot seven or eight years ago, for example when I presented with David Pujadas where I had the impression that I was posing the question and we answered in Pujadas, I was the flower pot next to it and I was waiting”

But the presenter of the show believes that times have changed. “I don’t have the impression that when I ask the question in the morning, we look at Nicolas Demorand or at least less and less,” she declared.

“We have still seen a revolution in ten years, an acceleration. Today, almost all the morning interviews, the political interviews, are women. You present a big talk show, there was not before …”, she concluded.
