Richard Millet #homophobia #wingnut entrevue.fr

It only took a week after the show's return for L'Heure des Pros to cause a huge reaction on social networks. The fault lies with the writer Richard Millet, guilty of a total slip-up on the sexual orientation of Lucie Castets (NFP)…

The week could have ended calmly. In any case, in L'Heure des Pros on CNews, the first news channel in France. Because calm is never real, him, on X… After the intervention of Richard Millet, writer, on the subject of Lucie Castets, described as "sexually incorrect", Internet users are up in arms. Pascal Praud was forced to clarify the situation

« Richard Millet is said to have thoughts that he does not have. You only have to listen to the sequence in its entirety to be convinced of this." writes the journalist and moderator of the most popular morning show

Richard Millet will be asked to explain himself after his surprising sentence: " Who is this woman? She is a stranger, sexually incorrect, in addition, all that goes together, and who is left-wing, it is not possible"…

Pascal Praud is surprised and asks him for explanations. The writer tries to explain his shocking remarks but drowns in explanations: " We choose an unknown, it's almost a construction, she is 40 years old, she is not bad, she is sexually well oriented according to the standards of the new world"

Before concluding : " When we are in a political logic of this kind, it is a plus, that is what I mean«

Comments that offend the majority on X, so attacks are pouring in against the writer. We can notably remember the acerbic tweet from the PFC senator of Hauts-de-Seine, Pierre Ouzoulias: "Richard Millet is not content with being homophobic. He is also the author of an essay entitled "Literary Praise of Anders Breivik", in which he praises the far-right terrorist who killed 77 people in the summer of 2011 in Norway. Disgusting«
