French reporters end an unsuccessful strike against a new editor known as a far-right supporter

Journalists at France’s emblematic Sunday newspaper Le Journal du Dimanche ended a 40-day strike Tuesday after unsuccessfully protesting the appointment of an editor-in-chief they denounce as a far-right supporter. It was the longest journalists' strike in France in decades. The journalists had denounced the appointment of Geoffroy Lejeune, known for his far-right political views, which they say is putting the editorial independence of the newspaper at risk.

UPDATE 1-As French paper ends strike, new editor to find 'empty newsroom'

Journalists at France's flagship Sunday newspaper, Le Journal du Dimanche, agreed with owner Lagardere on Tuesday to end a five-week strike in protest against the nomination of a new editor-in-chef who had worked for a far-right magazine. Staff had been on strike since late June to protest the nomination of Geoffroy Lejeune, the former head of magazine Valeurs Actuelles, which has courted controversy with anti-immigrant covers and was fined for racist insult in 2022. His nomination had raised concerns in France about the expansion of an increasingly strident right-wing media empire under the control of French billionaire Vincent Bollore, which has drawn comparisons with U.S. TV channel, Fox News.

EU antitrust regulators approve Vivendi, Lagardere deal

BRUSSELS (Reuters) -Vivendi, the French media conglomerate controlled by billionaire Vincent Bollore, on Friday won conditional EU antitrust approval for its acquisition of France's largest publisher Lagardere. Vivendi last year announced the deal which would give it control of Lagardere's flagship weekly publications Journal du Dimanche (JDD) and Paris Match. The European Commission, which acts as the competition enforcer in the 27-country European Union, said Vivendi agreed to sell its publishing unit Editis and celebrity magazine Gala to address regulatory concerns about the deal.
