France: new editor at Le Figaro
Posted by Bertrand Pecquerie on September 30, 2004 at 3:56 PM
It's a surprise: the warplane maker Serge Dassault, now owner of Socpresse and Le Figaro, first national daily in France has just appointed Nicolas Beytoux as new editor-in-chief of Le Figaro. So, Beytoux leaves Les Echos owned by Pearson and his family. The future role of Jean de Belot, former editor of Le Figaro is still not clear, but it seems remaining in the newspaper. Not the case of Yves de Chaisemartin, vice-president of Socpresse who was dismissed.
