“Le Monde” is no longer the only media to undergo LFI’s wrath as part of its amfis (Mélenchon (here on March 19)
POLITICS – After refusing to accredit Olivier Pérou, Rubricard at Monde and co -author of the successful book The pack (Ed. Flammarion), to his « Amfis » back to school, Jean-Luc Mélenchon attacks Libération. The leader of rebellious France did not like the newspaper to send a formal notice to the creators of the L’Enlysée store to request the withdrawal of one of their products that was inspired by their logo.
This shop, parody of that launched by the Elysée in 2018, manufactures humorous objects. In a video posted on X and set off again by Jean-Luc Mélenchon, one of the members of the Enlysée presents a bottle of sauce, the ” Sauce that », Whose labeling takes up the graphic charter of Libération.
“It is because of her that we are in the sauce,” he explains. “” It’s a joke But a real sauce made in Brussels based on pear and chilli. The pear ” honeyed as an electoral promise “And the pepper to recall” The real taste of betrayal ».
« Do you want to censor the humor on the left? »
Emphasizing several times that they are “ left “, That they make humor” anti-reactionary “And sometimes tap” in everyone’s face “, This representative of the Enlysée says he is amazed at having received the same morning on the premises of the shop a registered letter of Liberation requesting that their logo will no longer be used because” This would prejudice them and harm their image ».
Specifying however that this “ is not their logo », He proposes to put a link to subscribe to the newspaper on the product page available The Enlysée website. “” Well then Liberation, do you want to censor the humor on the left? », Is it written in legend of the video posted on X Saturday August 24.
In the comments, many Internet users noted that this case was more of the imitation of brand and an attack on intellectual property.
In the process, Jean-Luc Mélenchon did not fail to pin the newspaper. “” For Liberation, freedom of expression is only that of liberation. And for the same humor. Look at that, it’s pretty funny. The comrades of Enlysée who made this humorous sauce received a formula of lawyer from Libé. »
A spike that occurs two days after Libération decided to leave the Amphis to protest against the choice of management not to accredit Olivier Pérou.
