2. Sex Scandals: Just Another News Story?

Sex scandals are breaking audience records. The public is interested in them. Is it the role of news journalists to inform the French about these news items?

A. Yes, absolutely. News in brief is just as important as other topics. (0% / 0 votes)

B. No, that's more the role of the tabloid press. News journalists should inform about real societal issues. (0% / 0 votes)

C. Yes, sordid stories reflect the nature of those who originate them. It is important to know who you are voting for. (0% / 0 votes)

D. No, sexual affairs are a distraction and meanwhile, unjust laws pass without the slightest opposition. (100% / 1 vote)

100%

3. Is Activist Journalism Real Journalism?

Is feminist activist journalism genuine journalism or is it activism in disguise?

A. This is clearly disguised activism. There is no contradiction, no impartiality, no neutrality. The conclusion is always the same: The taxpayer must pay. (0% / 0 votes)

B. This is true journalism. Reporting on women's struggles is important. We must continue and go even further. (0% / 0 votes)

C. This is activism that imposes a single way of thinking. The problem isn't feminism itself but that it doesn't allow for alternative perspectives. This isn't journalism. (50% / 1 vote)

50%

D. It's still journalism. Feminist journalism is no more militant than other forms of journalism. Thanks to the pluralism of information, there is always the possibility to think differently. (50% / 1 vote)

50%

4. Falling wages: are women to blame?

When professions become feminised, wages fall. This is particularly the case for hospital staff, teachers and even lawyers. Is it women's fault?

A. Not at all, it's men's fault. We live in a sexist society that underpays women because they are women. (50% / 1 vote)

50%

B. Yes, women don't know how to negotiate their salary. They accept everything without discussion. (50% / 1 vote)

50%

C. No, and it's not the fault of all men, only sexist men. Unfortunately, in leadership positions, all men are sexist. (0% / 0 votes)

D. No, there are no men in those professions. I don't see how it could be their fault. It must be the women's fault. (0% / 0 votes)

E. It's everyone's fault, that way there are no jealousies. (0% / 0 votes)

Total Responses: 2

5. Should precarious contracts be refused?

Women accept precarious, part-time and underpaid contracts more than men. Should they be encouraged to refuse them?

A. Yes, absolutely. These contracts are driving all wages down. Fight back, ladies! (0% / 0 votes)

B. No, these contracts are useful. They allow them to better reconcile their family life and professional life. (50% / 1 vote)

50%

C. Yes, but women already refuse them. It's just that they have no other choice but to accept them. It's often that, or nothing. (50% / 1 vote)

50%

D. No, women do what they want. It's their choice and they have the right to do so. (0% / 0 votes)

E. Instead, men should be encouraged to accept these jobs and assume their parental role. For women to accept full-time work, they need to be freed up from domestic responsibilities. (0% / 0 votes)

6. Journalism, a cash machine?

News newspapers must be profitable to exist. Is journalism a business like any other?

A. Yes completely, no matter what they sell, what matters is that it's profitable. Anyway, as long as there's someone to buy, there will be someone to sell. (50% / 1 vote)

50%

B. No, absolutely not. Information is a right that guarantees democratic freedom. You must be properly informed to know who to vote for. Information should be a public and free good. (50% / 1 vote)

50%

C. Yes, let's be honest, if you want to develop and inform effectively, you need resources. Quality information comes at a cost. (0% / 0 votes)

D. On the contrary. Journalism must emancipate itself from financial interests to be of quality. Information must be revealed, even when it undermines the powers of money. (0% / 0 votes)

Total Responses: 2

7. Journalists as Prosecutors?

Some media outlets like Mediapart, Cnews, or Cash Investigation play the role of prosecutors. Is it the journalists' role to decapitate their political opponents by conducting biased investigations and calling for people's tribunals?

A. That's exactly right. Long live guillotine journalism! (0% / 0 votes)

B. Absolutely not. The role of journalists is to promote leaders, not to remove them. (0% / 0 votes)

C. Yes, the role of journalists is to hold public figures accountable, who too often place themselves above the law and evade sanctions. (0% / 0 votes)

D. Not at all. This is disinformation and manipulation of information for political purposes. These media outlets should be condemned. (50% / 1 vote)

50%

E. Yes, journalism is the fourth estate, representing civil society and serving as a counter-power. Journalists represent their readers who sometimes demand accountability. (50% / 1 vote)

50%

Total Responses: 2

8. Should we separate the man from the artist?

Sex scandals destroy careers. Should sexist and sexual behaviours that occurred in private life be professionally sanctioned?

A. No, a lack of morality does not diminish talent or skills. One must 'separate the man from the artist'. (0% / 0 votes)

B. Yes. We cannot allow sexual offenders to hold positions of power or domination that enable them to exert control over their victims. One must not 'separate the man from the artist'. (0% / 0 votes)

C. Yes, criminals must face the consequences of their actions. We cannot applaud or reward sexual offenders. (50% / 1 vote)

50%

D. No, sanctions should be measured and limited. One should not impose sanctions for eternity in all aspects of life. (50% / 1 vote)

50%

E. Yes, because the justice system often turns a blind eye to sexual crimes. Public sanction is often the only possible one. (0% / 0 votes)

F. No, one must forgive. Once someone has paid their debt to society, the punishment must stop. (0% / 0 votes)

Total Responses: 2

9. Morality in Power?

Eliminating election candidates for sexist and sexual behaviour, or for moral failings, effectively propels conservative puritans and religious fanatics into power. Should we select our leaders based on moral criteria?

A. Yes, morality in power! That would be a change from rogue leaders. (0% / 0 votes)

B. No, it's the return of puritanism and religious obscurantism, which is far worse than sex scandals. (50% / 1 vote)

50%

C. Yes, one should not exaggerate. It's not only conservative puritans and religious fanatics who do not assault women. There are progressives too. (50% / 1 vote)

50%

D. Absolutely not. Three-quarters of sex scandals involve left-wing personalities, because they work with women much more frequently than right-wing personalities. (0% / 0 votes)

E. Yes, thanks to these events, we are witnessing a rise of the right throughout Europe, and that's a good thing. (0% / 0 votes)

10. Are journalists politicians?

Many media outlets are politically biased, or specialise in campaign themes that divide public opinion (immigration, security, ecology, Europe, etc.). Are journalists politicians seeking to appeal to their readership?

A. Yes, journalists are politicians like any others. They just want to win elections. (50% / 1 vote)

50%

B. No, the role of journalists is to inform, adhering to strict ethical rules of neutrality and information verification. (50% / 1 vote)

50%

C. Yes, the role of journalists is to inform their activists. They don't need to convince them, as they are already convinced. (0% / 0 votes)

D. No, it's clear when they organise the debate between the two rounds. They question the candidates and remain in the background. (0% / 0 votes)

E. Yes, it's clearly visible when they give voting instructions during the run-off elections. Their role is to guide the reader and influence the outcome of the votes. (0% / 0 votes)
