Journalists confront François Hollande

To get to the Elysée Palace, François Hollande had to develop a special relationship with journalists. For seven years, he had to receive extensive media coverage, both during the campaign and during his term of office. In this way, François Hollande instigated a relationship paradigm with the Parisian journalistic sphere. This paradigm can be observed through numerous interactions: his interviews. During the campaign, François Hollande maintained good relations with journalists, which enabled him to win over his electorate. However, these relations became much more intractable after he came to power. Are the changes in this relationship paradigm due solely to political events? To his communication? What are the factors that have changed these relationships? Why is François Hollande one of the political figures who made the most meteoric progress during his campaigns, while at the same time being the most criticised President of the Fifth Republic? How can this paradox be explained?
