Jean-Pierre Pernaut: a portrait dedicated to the journalist soon to be released

A poignant tribute for the anniversary of the late death of the man who rocked most of our lives: Jean-Pierre Pernaut.

Passed away a year ago, on Wednesday March 2, 2022, Jean-Pierre Pernaut was an authority figure in the daily lives of all generations. He grew up with our grandparents, he grew up with our parents, and he rocked our childhoods. So much that makes his death so regrettable for all. For this reason, TMC has announced the broadcast of a portrait which will be dedicated to him on February 24.

Millions of viewers who lost their idol TF1

March 2, 2022 was a disastrous day for the French, because it was on this day that Jean-Pierre Pernaut left the screens for good. Since he announced his departure from the TF1 channel in 2020, sadness was already hovering. Indeed, it gathered more than 8.13 million viewers at the 1 p.m. news on TF1. Sadly, the late presenter passed away from lung cancer at the age of 71. This event shocked the whole country and caused mourning for weeks. Journalists, celebrities and anonymous people relayed thousands of tributes from all over France. This phenomenon shows how much he was adored.

Moreover, his career counts no less than 32 long years of presence on the channel. Indeed, we can say it, Jean-Pierre Pernaut was the pillar of information on the first channel, where he exploded the hearings. Note, at the same time, that his farewell presented on the 1 p.m. news had put France in a state of deep sadness. In this regard, more than 8 million viewers had watched this moving passage.

Thus, on the anniversary of his death, his former employer dedicates to him a tribute commensurate with his past devotion. In this logic, the diffusion of this documentary strongly risks reviving the scar of the French.

A long-awaited tribute for the anniversary of the death of Jean-Pierre Pernaut

However, the exact content of this report is not known. But, we already know the title which is: “ Jean-Pierre Pernaut, one year already”. In the end, this documentary had already been made by Michel Izard in 2020. In this regard, it had already been broadcast after the presenter's farewell to the 1 p.m. news. But, for the occasion, the documentary has been enriched with fifteen additional and unpublished minutes.

Moreover, TMC spoke on this subject: “You will discover how the young presenter of the news has become a true icon. How he managed to tie such a love story with the French. What were the passions and secrets of the man who defined himself as an anti-star, as simple and sincere on the air as in the city. '. It should be noted that they insisted on the unpublished nature of these first fifteen minutes which were added for the occasion of the anniversary of his death. Jean-Pierre Pernaut is undoubtedly a man who remains in the memories and in the hearts.
