Disappointment for Jean-Baptiste Marteau as he Misses out on Hosting Télématin on France 2
Jean-Baptiste Marteau is facing a bitter disappointment as he will not be taking over from Thomas Sotto as the host of “Télématin” on France 2. The 41-year-old journalist, who was a prominent figure on France 2 this summer, excelling during the Olympic Games and hosting the tribute show for the “80 years of the Liberation,” received the news via a text message sent to the Franceinfo teams this morning.
In the message obtained by puremedias.com, Marteau expressed his disappointment at not being chosen to succeed Thomas Sotto on “Télématin” this season. He had been the backup host for the morning show on France 2 until recently, leading him to believe that he would be taking on the role permanently. However, the decision was ultimately made to go in a different direction, leaving Marteau feeling let down.
“I am struggling to come to terms with France Télévisions’ decision,” Marteau wrote in the message. “I have just learned that I will not be presenting ‘Télématin’ this season. Until very recently, everything seemed to indicate that I would. However, the group has decided otherwise. I cannot hide my deep disappointment, which I am currently finding hard to digest.”
Marteau went on to announce that he is scheduled to return to the helm of the Franceinfo morning show starting on September 9, once the Paralympic Games have concluded. He expressed pride in the team’s work and motivation, which had been rewarded with numerous audience records. Marteau concluded by expressing his hope that the morning show would continue to thrive with the same dedication and energy in the upcoming season.
