Aurélie Casse achieves high viewership during France 2 news stint

Journalist Aurélie Casse reported high viewership numbers during her recent week as a substitute presenter for the France 2 20:00 news program. Stepping in for Jean-Baptiste Marteau, Casse averaged 3.8 million viewers, a figure that exceeded the recent performance of Léa Salamé.

During her tenure, Casse reached a peak of 4 million viewers with a 22.7% audience share. This performance significantly narrowed the gap between France Télévisions and TF1, marking one of the smallest margins of the season.

Despite the commercial success, Casse expressed feeling intense pressure and stress before going on air, describing the experience as intense and exciting on social media.
