The HCE’s 2026 report reads this as a symptom: virility can become a narrative of hostility, ready to coalesce. With 17% adherence to hostile sexism among those 15 and older, the minority now weighs on the public space. The question is not the image but what it signals: a battle of norms fought at algorithmic speed.

$On the walls of high-profile events, the Beckham clan long circulated like a signature. This photograph, once a simple public memento, now takes on the value of a before. A son says he wants to stop playing the expected role and contests the family staging. When notoriety has illuminated everything, the smallest crack becomes a matter of narrative. When a toxic family is also a brand, the fracture becomes public.$

Official portrait of the King of Morocco in the royal palace, an image of permanence that contrasts with the empty seat in the stands.

In Istres, the president embraces the unexpected, jokes, and regains control of an image that was threatening to slip away from him. The digital crowd gets excited, creates narratives, while the speech hammers home industrial urgency and rearmament pace. 'In this contrast, the detail becomes a prism, and the era reveals its obsession with interpreting strategy in a redness.'

January 14, 2026: the Court of Cassation made Jean‑Marc Morandini’s conviction for corruption of minors final. The court found sexual messages were sent to three teenagers between 2009 and 2016. Sentence: two years suspended, €20,000 fine, registration in FIJAIS (the French criminal database for offenders), and a ban on working in contact with minors. CNews nonetheless keeps him on air: a criminal verdict, and a broadcasting choice that refuses to sideline him.
