Former political and economic editor of Paris Match, Bruno Jeudy was removed from it during the summer of 2022, amid disagreements with the management of the Lagardère group's weekly, in the process of being swallowed up by Vivendi, the group of Vincent Bolloré, with reputedly conservative opinions.
His dismissal had been denounced by the Society of Journalists of
Paris Match
and led to the vote of a motion of censure against the management.
