Vincent Bolloré opens its doors wide to Jean-Pierre Elkabbach. The owner and shareholder of reference of the group Bolloré, Vivendi and Canal+ is to formalize the recruitment of the journalist banned from Europe 1 that the hallmark of a spectacular rebound. While the station of the Lagard * re group has deleted his interviews in the morning during the week, the journalist Elkabbach thus ensure the same interviews policies and major maintenance for… iTélé. They will be disseminated in the framework of its new formula become a Arlésienne, when the chain (CNews. But Elkabbach not simply examine the main policy and the world.
Former president of France Télévisions, former head of Europe 1, rubbed it in the world of television and politics for more than fifty years, Elkabbach became an advisor to the general management of the group Vivendi Channel for its development. This journalist of influence will bring his long experience to the benefit of the business man breton… without leaving his current employer, Arnaud Lagardère, who retains him also in his bosom.
It is understood that this “true-false” transfer has been long, because the situation is unprecedented. A 79-year-old, Elkabbach has mobilized the two bosses of two giants of the French media, the two bosses that it will advise therefore at the same time.
The conflicting decisions of the Lagard * re group
man has always been close to Arnaud Lagardère. The news of his retention as an adviser to the prince shows that he has remained so. the ” The professional experience of Jean-Pierre Elkabbach and his passion of information for me are two additional advantages to the media activities of the group “, explains Arnaud Lagardère said in a statement. The decisions apparently contradictory to the Lagardère group are explained. If Elkabbach has been ruled out of the antenna of Europe 1 during the week, it is the decision of the boss operating Lagardère active, the media arm of the group, Denis Olivennes. In a group known for its internal tensions, Denis Olivennes, therefore, appears weakened by this deal, which sees his former employee, adviser, shareholder,…, Arnaud Lagardère seems to indicate a resumption in hand of the folder Europe 1, while, in the audiences delivered by Médiamétrie on Thursday, January 19, Europe 1 should get behind RMC. A symbolic st ep.
As the patron saint of media, Jean-Pierre Elkabbach has never shone, nor during his brief stint at the presidency of France Télévisions marked by the case of the facilitators-producers, or at the head of Europe 1.
besides, Arnaud Lagardère, not more, than Vincent Bolloré do not need the everlasting Jean-Pierre Elkabbach to contact the first actors of the economy, or politics. But Elkabbach, who form a tandem of influence at the top of the Lagardère group with Ramzi Khiroun, special advisor to Arnaud Lagardère, will be able to sell the infinite network of intermediate echelons in the media in which he lived for decades, and the effectiveness of its interventions in all the circles of the policy.
Bernheim, Labro… profiles valuable
A profile of precious. Vincent Bolloré has from the beginning made thrive his business based on this type of profiles, experienced, good professional, recognized, having held positions of responsibility at the highest level and have a large address book.
He first mobilized the engineering of the finance and the contacts of the banker Antoine Bernheim, who has advised almost until his death in 2012. The Bolloré beginner in the media to Direct 8, to lend credibility to his approach, had been looking for Philippe Labro, the novelist, journalist, pen recognized, man of the radio and television and former boss of the radio group RTL. Philippe Labro is always in the lap of the media of Bolloré.
The business man, who tries to recruit round-arm stars to fill the gaping holes left by a hundred departures at iTélé – in addition to Jean-Marc Morandini, we speak of Patrick Poivre d’arvor – admits in his inner circle, a new human experience and network, Jean-Pierre Elkabbach, 79 years of age, that he will share with Arnaud Lagardère. The banned Elkabbach takes his revenge and there may be not said its last word.
