Pascal Praud (born 9 September 1964) is a French sports journalist, radio columnist, radio host, television presenter and producer.[1]

After 20 years with TF1, especially alongside Thierry Roland on Téléfoot, he became general manager in charge of communication and marketing of FC Nantes in 2008 for two years.[2] On radio, since 2010, he has hosted several sports broadcasts on RTL, also writing a column for the station's morning show from 2014 to 2018. On television, since 2017, he has produced and hosted several shows on CNews dealing with football as well as current affairs and politics.

On the French media space, Pascal Praud participates in the normalisation of the ideas of the French far-right, notably these of Éric Zemmour, and in the very conservative politic led by Vincent Bolloré in his media holdings. He did a lot of polemics and controversies because of words he held or approved in his sets, including denying the climate change[3] or tying bedbugs to the immigration.[4] He is also accusated of misogyny towards many of his female colleagues.[5][6][7]

Filmography

He played himself in a short appearance in the film Trois Zéros by Fabien Onteniente (2002).
