” Jean-Marc Morandini will join, as expected, i-Télé from the Wednesday, October 19. He hosted "Morandini live", a magazine devoted to the media with interviews, debates and news related to current events in the sector. “The chain information of the group, Vincent Bolloré has finally decided, Friday, October 7, assuming the antenna of the facilitator the controversial issues, the issuance of which will be daily, Monday to Friday, from 18 hours to 19 hours.

For i-Télé, the decision is a risk-taking : the channel has chosen to ignore the indictment of Jean-Marc Morandini, for ” corruption of minors “ and ” corruption of minors aggravated “ by the use of an electronic means of communication. At the end of a controversy which began this summer, he has been placed under judicial control and is now the prohibition to enter in contact with the alleged victims as to exercise a professional activity in connection with minors.
” the Principle of hearing “
” on Friday morning, the management came to explain his choice, to the writing : it has to be justified by a principle of hearing, saying that Jean-Marc Morandini was followed by millions of people and could help to straighten the chain “, reports that a journalist, stating that Serge Nedjar, director general of i-Télé, has taken to his account of the decision, although it was accompanied by the director of the antennae of the group, Gérald-Brice Viret, in particular.
the direction of i-Tv, it adds that Mr. Morandini remains presumed innocent. If he had conviction, he would leave i-Tv without compensation. He has not been back to school because he had to prepare his defence, but now it is ready, and adds it.
The society of journalists (SDJ), was, she, already opposed to the arrival of Jean-Marc Morandini before the case and had since renewed its strong hostility to the arrival of a facilitator now tried without the ” credibility ” on the information. the ” The notoriety brought to his work as a film producer of an erotic nature has marred permanently his image of a journalist, ” she wrote. The LDS had more recently indicated that the directorate had given guarantees that it would not arrive at the antenna.
” Unfortunately, the arguments on the image of the chain have no control on the direction, ” regret it a journalist, telling stories that reporters have dreaded having to face critics on the field, while we reproach them already and sometimes the governance of Vivendi and Canal+, considered to be authoritarian.
A countdown of the decision of the Europe 1
the position of The i-Télé risk all the more to be controversial as it contrasts with that of Europe 1, which after some hesitation decided to remove the antenna M. Morandini. This week, Denis Olivennes, the head of the parent company, Lagardère Active, has explained that the radio was held by the labour code to keep the host under the contract in respect of the principle of presumption of innocence. He believed that there was, for the moment, ” not the elements of nature, it returns to the antenna “, while specifying that he would make his return if the accusations were raised.
NRJ 12, where Mr. Morandini presents ” Crimes “, it had initially refused to comment and then judged that the layout of the exam changed the context : the host has never been more visible to the antenna, but it has continued to be audible in the comments of the program.
on The 25th of August, i-Tv had it released a statement ambiguous : “To enable him to prepare his defence, i-Télé and Jean-Marc Morandini will determine how the date will begin his show, “, wrote that the chain, while adding : ” In the event of conviction, Jean-Marc Morandini and i-Tele had already planned that he would leave the group without compensation. “

a long-standing relationship with Vincent Bolloré
A context element illuminates the table : Jean-Marc Morandini has a long-standing relationship with Vincent Bolloré. The facilitator has held for several years a program on the chain of the contractor, Direct 8, prior to its resale to the Canal+ group in 2012. Its premises were located in the tour Bolloré, the group’s headquarters in Puteaux. Then, Mr. Morandini has been a commentator from 2008 to the free daily owned by Mr. Bolloré, Evening Live and Live Morning. Finally, Bolloré Media, the subsidiary ad hoc group, has even bought back the majority of the site Jeanmarcmorandini.com, in 2011. Before selling to Mr. Morandini share this blog devoted to the media, in which the facilitator creates controversy, and discusses the personalities of the sector.
i-Tele, the string specifies that the programme will have a ” focus on the media “, so it was originally a question of a range of general news. This positioning is likely to calm a part of the fears of journalists, who challenge the legitimacy of Mr. Morandini on ” information “. It is also consistent with his specialty developed on Europe 1 in ” Le Grand Direct media “. But this is likely to raise questions about potential conflicts of interest. Often accused of promoting its own emissions at the antenna, the host, were mostly spread out this summer at the big day enmities fierce with some coaches competitors : during the press conference organized for its defence in the case of the castings bare, he had ensured that Marc-Olivier Fogiel, RTL, had helped to feed the press to harm her.
