The top stories and key influencers in the French election

[View Online]( ) The top stories and key influencers in the French election France is in the middle of going to the polls after President Macron called a snap election back in June. With round one of the elections on Sunday, there will be plenty of media coverage and social posts to come, but so far it has been a case study in the new media ecosystem, with a mix of traditional media, new media, and influential voices dominating the conversation online. As the chart below shows, there have been two clear peaks in both media and public interest, first the European elections and then the first round of the National Assembly elections, which happened this weekend. Social media is playing a big part in the coverage too, with content looking quite different across various platforms. The clear lesson from Instagram and TikTok is the outsized influence of YouTuber Hugo Travers, better known to his audience as HugoDécrypte. He has posts on Instagram [explaining the election]( that have hundreds of thousands of engagements, confirming the parallel media ecosystem that exists natively on social and doesn’t rely on websites and traditional newsrooms.

This new feature will boost your team’s ability to monitor, respond, and strategize effectively, keeping everyone up to date. - Effortless Sharing — You can now distribute your carefully crafted dashboards with your entire team, keeping everyone on the same page. - Real-Time Insights — Your chosen recipients get instant access to the most up-to-date, real-time data and insights in one place. - Controlled Access — View-Only Dashboards preserve the integrity of your search terms and tracked account. Three ways View-Only Dashboards will enhance your workflow: ​​​​​​1. Empowered dissemination: Users can effortlessly share dashboards, allowing recipients to view and interact with the data, through filters and by making temporary changes, without the risk of changing the information for everyone else. 2. Frictionless flexibility: You retain complete control over data sharing. Again, owners can negate access, transfer ownership, and allow recipients to create alerts and reports. Users can also duplicate dashboards for permanent changes (if needs be). This flexibility enhances productivity while maintaining data integrity and a single source of truth. 3. Streamlined decision-making: The feature enables team members to create alerts, reports, and digests directly from shared dashboards. This ensures critical updates and insights are readily available to all stakeholders, reducing manual updates and communication time. Find out more on how it works over on [our blog]( .
