Controversies
Taddei was criticized by other French journalists like Caroline Fourest and Patrick Cohen because of his vision of freedom of speech. In his TV-show Ce Soir (ou jamais) he invited controversial French personalities such as Dieudonné, Alain Soral, Jean Bricmont, or Marc-Édouard Nabe (one of his friends). These figures are accused by their critics of having anti-semitic opinions, and Taddei was thus criticized for giving them a platform (even though no complaints were ever made about anything that was aired in 8 years of broadcasting, except when Matthieu Kassovitz expressed his doubts about the 9/11 case). Taddei and Ce Soir (ou jamais) have been defended by personalities such as Bernard Pivot, Régis Debray, and Alain Jacubowicz (president of the LICRA, the French League Against Racism and Antisemitism).[2]
