Two days after the sidelining of Hervé Gattegno from the management of the JDD and Paris Match, Lagardère News finally unveils the new organization of its two magazines.
In both cases, the Lagardère group decided to create tandems combining tutelary figures and internal promotions.
Jérôme Bellay, 79, is making his comeback at the head of Journal du Dimanche, which he directed from 2011 until 2016. He is appointed Managing Director of the Journal du Dimanche.
He will be assisted by Cyril Petit, promoted to Editorial Director.
Until now, he was Deputy Director of the Sunday Daily.
Patrick Mahé, 74, has been appointed Chief Executive Officer of Paris Match.
Former journalist at Paris Match and former manager of Télé 7 jours, he has until now supervised the Paris Match specials.
He will be assisted by Caroline Mangez, current deputy editor-in-chief of picture magazine, who is promoted to editor-in-chief of Paris Match.
