A political cartoon about French television debates is circulating online, with the artist saying it applies to any country where media ownership has been consolidated in the hands of a few elites. The comic mocks the standardised format of televised debates and the concentrated ownership behind them, and commenters are echoing the concern that mainstream broadcast debate no longer represents a genuine plurality of views.
Why now: The cartoon taps into ongoing criticism of media concentration and formulaic televised debates, a topic that resonates across many countries.
