Mediapart published an investigation into writings attributed to Jordan Bardella between 2013 and 2015, described as antisemitic and influenced by Alain Soral.

Jordan Bardella denies authorship of these remarks, denouncing a "barbouserie operation" the same channel.
Vincent Lapierre documents an increase in crime and degradation in La Souterraine, Creuse. He asserts that the State no longer respects the "social contract" as taxes no longer guarantee security. An intervenant in this video attributes these disturbances to "migrants" the same channel.
Le Fil d'Actu - Officiel argues that the government uses the Russian threat as a diversion to hide the failure of economic policies regarding rising fuel prices. Meanwhile, GoldenBoy and Castor Carnassier discuss high school mobilizations, describing them respectively as "fascism" to silence opponents and as "riots" encouraged by a political party.

Contestations of the electoral system and bankruptcy of la Cordée in Quebec
The creator of the channel Président De L'Association De L’Union-Nationale denounces irregularities in the Quebec electoral system and calls the signature validation process for mail-in voting an "incredible lie."

On the economic front, Maxime Ouimet presents the bankruptcy of the company la Cordée as an illustration of the inability of large companies to adapt to the fourth industrial revolution. Simultaneously, the channel NLB - FreedomNews claims that Donald Trump's protectionist measures are causing layoffs in the steel industry in Hamilton.

Comments on female celibacy and promotion of a digital directory in Florida
The channel Camron Diffusion, oriented towards the manosphere, comments on testimonies from women expressing their loneliness. The videographer claims that female celibacy results from a refusal of the average man in favor of inaccessible men. He argues that feminist ideology has reduced women to their physical appearance by devaluing other forms of seduction, leading to social and family isolation as they approach forty.
Additionally, Maxime Ouimet, oriented towards the far right, criticizes the inefficiency of print advertising newspapers, which he calls the "dinosaur generation." He asserts that this model is obsolete because it does not allow for precise measurement of the audience or generated clients. The videographer offers French-speaking entrepreneurs in Florida the use of his digital directory, Floride411.com, to promote organic visibility.

US Secret Programs, Donald Trump's Travels, and Claude AI Morality
On the PowerfulJRE channel, a former intelligence officer claims that the US government is hiding non-human craft and bodies to avoid financial fraud prosecutions.

Breaking Points reports that Donald Trump visited Oklahoma, a state described as his comfort zone. Additionally, the channel claims that US aerial superiority over Iran no longer exists following the loss of several aircraft.

Regarding technology, Breaking Points reports that Anthropic consulted religious experts to implement morality and explore the consciousness of its AI, Claude. One speaker on the channel argues that this reliance on religion shows that the creators no longer understand how their technology works.

The corpus
Three countries, two platforms, 126 channels
Each channel is chosen and coded by the team. It gets an orientation, a country and a language. The far right is deliberately over-represented, to study it closely. The English-language corpus was extended in October 2026. Its videos are transcribed and summarised, and its classifiers will soon be trained and deployed.

Our method
Detect, extract, transcribe, classify, name, summarise
Six methods, run on the project’s computers, each documented with its models, thresholds and reliability. Pick a step.
01 · Detect
The channels’ RSS feeds are read every six hours; every week their full list of videos is reread. A detected video enters the queue with its date; those of the last seven days go ahead of everything else.
- Cadence
- every 6 h, full listing every week
- Priority
- the last seven days first
02 · Extract
The video, its metadata and its comments are extracted; the audience is measured again at day 1, 7 and 30. A removal is recorded with its reason when the platform gives one, and a transcribed video keeps its record.
- Tools
- yt-dlp, RSS feeds, platform APIs
- Snapshots
- day 1, 7, 30, then monthly
03 · Transcribe
The voice is isolated from the music (Demucs), speakers told apart without being identified (pyannote), then Whisper transcribes each speaking turn in the spoken language, detected by windows. Turns are cut into sentences (SaT).
- Models
- Demucs, pyannote 3.1, Whisper large-v3-turbo, SaT
- Languages
- French and English, segment by segment
04 · Classify
Each sentence is classified as political or not by a classifier trained on human annotations, then assigned to nine themes by nine binary classifiers. Their reliability (F1, checked precision) is published.
- Models
- CamemBERTav2, one per label
- Measure
- mean share per video when orientations are compared
05 · The people named
The public figures, parties, organisations, media and countries of a closed list are recognised in the sentences by checked patterns and counted video by video. A private person named in a video is never counted.
- List
- entries
- Guard
- named entities (GLiNER) to set aside places and organisations
06 · Summarise
A local language model writes for each video of the week a record in French and English. It gives the title, the summary, the claims and their speakers, the public figures named. The record is checked against the transcript; a name that could be a private person’s holds it back. The records feed the week’s synthesis and the arguments by theme.
- Model
- Gemma 4 31B, on the project’s computers
- Guard
- names checked against the closed list
