“Why has what occurred so typically within the PPDA workplace remained not possible to grasp? »

[L’ancienne journaliste Hélène Devynck décrypte le « système criminel » qui a perduré, au sein de TF1, autour de Patrick Poivre d’Arvor, pendant plus de trente années. A travers une succession de portraits, elle raconte dans Impunité, récit à paraître au Seuil le 23 septembre, l’histoire des femmes, dont elle-même, qui disent avoir été agressées ou violées par la star de TF1. Plusieurs enquêtes ont été ouvertes sur les faits reprochés à PPDA, dont certaines ont été classées sans suite pour cause de prescription. Dans les procédures encore en cours, l’ancien journaliste, qui nie l’ensemble des accusations, est présumé innocent. Nous proposons ici quelques extraits du livre.]

We stay within the countryside, in a village, in a giant metropolis in France or in Paris. We’re bourgeois, proper or left, broke or not, group activist, psychotherapist, trainer, restaurateur, saleswoman at Intersport, journalists for a lot of. Girls writers are overrepresented, anorexics too. Some have been minors on the time (…). All of us have larger training.
