in France has revealed a strong tendency by the country's media to give far-right voices airtime and amplify their fringe views.
Such views, however, haven't stopped France's media from giving him airtime to espouse those views further. In contrast, editors at the BFMTV decided to give just over 15 percent of airtime to the country's president. Whereas Marine Le Pen, a more established far-right candidate, received almost 15 percent.
"TPMP gives an overwhelming emphasis to the far right," said the report with more than 70 percent of references on the channel about far-right candidates. Most other candidates barely broached the 20 percent mark of coverage; only Macron came close while other candidates trailed on single digits.
