Eugénie Bastié (born 18 November 1991) is a French journalist and essayist.

A Le Figaro employee, she is also editor in chief of the integral ecology magazine Limite, of Catholic inspiration. In 2016, she published a critical essay on feminism, Adieu mademoiselle. A conservative, she is part of a generation of young Catholic intellectuals. The Nation in 2018 described her as "a rising star."

Childhood and education

Daughter of a landscaper and a specialist in nuclear medicine, Eugénie Bastié has four brothers and sisters; she grew up in Pibrac, in the Haute-Garonne in a Catholic family.

Career

She partook in 2013 in the Manif pour tous. From 2013 to 2015 she collaborated with Causeur, an internet site and biweekly magazine directed by Élisabeth Lévy.

Following an internship at Figarovox, the opinion and debate site of Le Figaro (considered by Nolwenn Le Blevennec, from L'Obs, as the "hard right platform of Le Figaro"), she was hired by Le Figaro in 2014, recommended by Alexis Brézet.

In 2015, Bastié co-founded the French ecologist "Limite" magazine.

Bastié has compared Marine Le Pen "a little bit" to Hillary Clinton.

The Huffington Post has reported that Bastié's comments on #metoo have "created a controversy."
