The sudden death of one of the members of the CSA, Michèle Léridon.

She passed away on Monday, at the age of 62.

Michèle Léridon, journalist, had spent almost all of her career at Agence France Presse, where she had been director of information.

She had also been the first woman appointed to this post.

She occupied it for five years from 2014 to 2019, before joining the Superior Audiovisual Council.

“An institution that it has left its mark on,” wrote the CSA in a press release this Tuesday morning.

Its president, Roch-Olivier Maistre, moved, pays homage to him.

Another disappearance in the media world, that of Bashir Ben Yahmed.

The founder of “Jeune Afrique” died at the age of 93 as a result of the Covid-19.

“Jeune Afrique”, a newspaper he created in Tunisia in 1960, which has become the reference magazine on French-speaking Africa, sometimes nicknamed the “55th African State”.

Magazine around which he created a press group which counts among its titles, “La Revue”, a bimonthly of international news. 

Eric Zemmour will stay on the air at CNews. 

It was the management of the Canal + group who announced it on Monday, without making any further comments.

The polemicist remains, therefore, despite accusations of sexual assault: forced kisses, an ambiguous text message, among others.

Charges brought by five women, whose testimonies were collected by Mediapart.

Le Figaro, another employer of Eric Zemmour, did not wish to react. 

The campaign for regional elections in the media.

LCI will organize three debates.

Three debates for three regions: Hauts-de-France, first, in a little over a month, on June 9.

Then Île-de-France, June 14.

Finally, Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur, June 16, just four days before the first round of the ballot.

Three debates which will be moderated by David Pujadas.  

The focus of the day's program: two new series on TF1.

Two American series, broadcast every Tuesday evening from today. "For Life" in the second part of the evening and, before it, as a bonus, "Lincoln: in pursuit of the Bone Collector". It is a detective fiction inspired by the film “Bone Collector”, released in 2000 with Denzel Washington and Angelina Jolie. The series tells the story of Lincoln Rhyme, a criminologist trapped by the serial killer he hunts, the “Bone Collector”. A trap that makes him quadriplegic. But no question of giving up the hunt. He continues from home, thanks to the help of his teammate, Amelia Sachs. She wears cameras on her. A series that seduced TF1, and first and foremost its artistic director of international acquisitions and co-productions, Sophie Leveaux.

Just after “Lincoln”, TF1 will broadcast “For life”.

It is a fiction inspired by a true story.

That of a man wrongly accused, sentenced to life imprisonment, who becomes a lawyer.

Two American series, while the most watched dramas on TF1 are French.

“HPI”, last Thursday, nearly 10 million viewers for the first episode and eight million, after replay, for “The Replacement”.

That said, there is no question for TF1 to abandon foreign fiction.

The channel wants to continue to offer all genres, explains Sophie Leveaux, artistic director of acquisitions and international co-productions of TF1.

From a red armchair to a green field: the presenter of “Complément d'études”, on France 2, could soon join the Olympique de Marseille.

Jacques Cardoze would be on the verge of becoming the director of communication for OM… Information from the newspaper L'Equipe.

Marseille, a city that the journalist knows well since he worked there as a correspondent for France Télévisions.

They were two of the most powerful digital brands of the 90s: Yahoo!

and AOL have just been sold.

Even braded, some say.

To an investment fund, Apollo Global Management.

The amount of the operation is five billion dollars, four billion euros.

Granted, that's a lot, but it's far less than the price at which the now ex-owner, Verizon, bought them for $ 9 billion five years ago.

A decrease of 45%. 

A new series project for Netflix.

An animated series inspired by one of the world's most popular video games, League of Legends. “Arcane” is the title of this series, will be partly designed by a French studio (Fortiche Productions). It will be broadcast from next fall.
