Pascal Praud to return to CNews in late August

Pascal Praud is scheduled to return to CNews on August 27, 2026, hosting ‘L’heure des Pros’ following a summer hiatus.

During the summer period, CNews experienced fluctuations in viewership. In July, the channel saw a decrease in audience share, recording 2.4% among the general public, a 0.7 point drop compared to the previous year. However, by August 11, 2026, the channel regained its position as a co-leader in news broadcasting, matching BFMTV with a 2.9% market share among viewers aged four and older.
