Canal +: Bolloré slams the door to the bosses of the “Zapping” and “Puppets” – Télérama.fr

The “Zapping” deleted, remained to zap creator Patrick Menais, now under the blow of dismissal proceedings for misconduct. As for the “Puppets”, they should continue but without historical producer, Yves Rolland. At Canal +, ongoing standardization.

“Canal + Killed Me” , the series produced by Vincent Bolloré and directed by Maxime Saada, director of the encrypted channel, and Gérald-Brice Viret, Chief antennas of the group, has been enriched by a new episode: “ Latest purges before summer .” Eyeing ostensibly on revenue that make the success of Game of Thrones , “ Canal kill me ” used and abused this late season of the sudden disappearance of key figures present since the beginning of history.

the last song of Le Rolland

At the end of the previous episode, we left Yves (Rolland) exhausted after a shortened season puppets began in encrypted December 14 with a new team and new puppets. The artistic director and producer of the historic Puppets was about to go on vacation when he was summoned by Gérald-Brice Viret, executor of the dirty work of Vincent Bolloré, to be told that the story ended. Over, over, after 21 years of loyal service. Obviously, we would do that in the rules, it is among civilized people is not it? Understand, the number of zeros on the check should alleviate this somewhat abrupt end. Vincent Bolloré had not said anything on June 22 before the Cultural Affairs Committee of the Senate evoking these 21 leaders ousted Canal + “ in extremely agreeable financial terms” and a right to … condidentialité reinforced concrete to avoid unwanted emotional.

Rolland out, what will become of Puppets? This season, they had already changed: less political than before, more oriented sport and showbiz. “Puppets Bolloré sauce” and were critical detractors that we were not the last. Trial necessarily always a little unfair. The Puppets were mixed, but we do not build a new team in a few weeks. They were less free, but certainly less political in a country that considers freedom of criticism in terms of the ability to fall tooth and nail on the general political and shareholder of the company that employs you in particular. The new Puppets yet knew mock Canal + but without excess, without falling into excesses as to treat Vincent Bolloré documentary censor or exploiters of African children. Manifestly inadequate because Bolloré has an obsession: to turn Vivendi into a kind of Walt Disney European giant able to remonstrate with these bastards GAFA (Google, Apple, Facebook, Amazon). And it is well known at Walt Disney, there is no information and even less political. And when they laugh, it is not obvious and some friends especially when they can be useful business side. All that to say that The Puppets should stay on the air in September but the dad Rolland and in a version increasingly international, showbiz and sport. Makes you wonder what they will do to the puppet of “Chi” used all the sauces that season.

How will react subscribers? To have. By switching from light to encrypted, the Puppets have lost a little more than two thirds of their audience from 1.8 million viewers to an average of 500,000. Big loss of visibility so but at the same time few programs can boast of being so watched by subscribers. It is better also because of Dailymotion, group home platform where one can see the clear (synergy requires), audiences are hungry. A few thousand views, the same number as the last video of your cousin, it is true to YouTube.



Menais badly zapped after Le Zapping

discarded Rolland, remained to zap a grand guignol that we put eyes full since a quarter century, Menais Patrick, the creator of the Zapping . Act One: management announced on June 27 the removal of the found not show “differentiating” . Here we hesitate between: it makes us the blow of contempt or it is urgent that they change glasses. Act 2, Patrick Menais was summoned to an interview prior to dismissal for misconduct and laid off as a precaution. High class ! Reason given: “ The company Canal discovered he had tabled on behalf of brands and Zapping year zapping .” Yes, you read correctly, Canal + had not registered the marks “ Le Zapping ” and “ The year zapping .” There, one hesitates between amateurism and amateurism. We also remember how a chain of Canal, D8, was fully incorporated in France 4 the concept of “ not touch my post ,” the public broadcaster had not thought to protect. Makes you wonder what the legal services in the separate chains negotiate departures?

Patrick Menais did not have quite down the ladder by learning that a dismissal procedure was initiated against him. The creator of the Zapping has continued to prove this year that he would never give up its criticism by failing to provide freedom Vincent Bolloré in several of these emissions. Meanwhile, his dismissal will give a bit of work in the Legal Department of the chain since Patrick Menais had in the last election of the works council of Canal + under the label of the CGT. It can not therefore be transferred overnight and not without a prior investigation of the labor inspectorate. Not easy to surf the Chief zapper.
