Bellamy urges Morandini to resign during radio interview
French conservative politician François-Xavier Bellamy has publicly called on television host Jean-Marc Morandini to step down, delivering a blunt message during a live radio interview on Europe 1.
Speaking on air alongside journalist Sonia Mabrouk, Bellamy directly addressed Morandini, urging him to resign following his continued presence in the media landscape despite a final court conviction related to the corruption of minors earlier this year. His remarks came amid ongoing controversy surrounding Morandini’s role on television and the broader debate over ethical standards in French media.
Bellamy, who serves as executive vice-president of the conservative party Les Républicains, praised Mabrouk for her decision to leave CNews in protest against Morandini’s continued airtime. He described her move as an act of courage and stressed the importance of moral clarity in both political life and public discourse.
According to Bellamy, certain principles should remain non-negotiable, warning against what he described as a growing culture of relativism. His intervention has reignited discussions in France about accountability, responsibility and the role of media figures following judicial rulings.
