Delphine Ernotte is the subject of a complaint from the CFE-CGC union for "embezzlement of funds" following a ten-day trip to Cannes in 2023. France Télévisions claims to have then “reinvoiced” this sum to Gross.

Plaintiffs concerned about legitimacy of spending “Not one euro of public money was used for these costs,” assures France T Livisions. The two founders of the media Brut, partner of France TV during the Cannes festival, and who were also there, would have cost more than 30,000 euros.
