Introduction to Sociology. For three years (1998-2001) Pierre Carles followed Pierre Bourdieu, a major sociologist, working to have his research understood and people prompted to action. Sociology is a fighting sport, not an intellectual technical tool for the elite to validate their choices. People need sociology to understand the growing inequalities and fire back, find their way out of the all-economic fatalism (imdb)

On 6 June 1994, a private conversation between Francois Leotard (Defence Minister) and Etienne Mougeotte (program director of TF1) is recorded before a live broadcast of a television journal. This conversation clearly shows their complicity friendly. This video is then resold illegally and Le Canard shackled and in published interview excerpts. It was in December 1994 that the video falls into the hands of Pierre Carles. (Wikipedia)

Pierre Carles tries to illustrate what Pierre Bourdieu says in his book On television, that is to say that television can't criticize because the television programs production conditions favor the regulars of television, so no necessarily conscious, despite a commitment to neutrality displayed.

Pierre Carles wonders about the privatization of the first French television channel: isn't it outrageous that TF1/Bouygues has been automatically renewed his license since 1987? Taking up his fight anti-TV, he is confronted with information officers who have always avoided addressing this taboo subject. But the survey does not go as planned: the old and young members of PAF now know how to deal with media critic. To find his "fighting spirit", he mustered his friends and changes his methodes. (imdb)
