Face à l'opinion was a French political television show hosted by Pierre Corval and broadcast on RTF, from October 20, 1954, to 1956.[2][3]

Premise[edit]

The show format is based on the American news show Meet the Press, where journalists questioned the politicians on live television; it was the first type of programme of its kind on French television.[4]

The show was cancelled by Guy Mollet because he was concerned about a programme on the legislative elections.[5]
