Pierre Ménès and The Teamdisenchantment
In February 2023, Pierre Ménès was already very critical of The Team. “I worked for 20 years at L’Équipe. It was my home, it was my family. I made my TV debut at L’Équipe TV. Even if today I no longer have a job, I don’t see myself going there, it’s not possible. This group has changed so much… I don’t recognize it. I think that if I were still at L’Équipe today I would be very unhappy”he imagined on his channel
YouTube.
Now away from television sets, since the broadcast in 2021 of
documentary directed by Marie PortolanoPierre Ménès has not definitively cut the microphone. On his own platform, the journalist continues to comment on and analyze sports news.
