the people they interview.
When it comes down to it,
the y're all from the same world.
They're like one big family.
Some went into politics,
some into business,
some into journalism.
That's the feeling you get.
They share the same lifestyle,
the same values, the same friendships.
They stay at the same hotels,
they vacation in the same places.
It really is a family.
"I'll roar and claw
to defend my husband"
This closeness
is so real
that it sometimes turns to passion.
Overt love affairs,
displayed and sold in glossy magazines.
Where else but in France,
the homeland of love?
AUDREY AND ARNAUD
OCKRENT "I'M COMING BACK"
Christine Ockrent
went one step further.
In 2008, when her husband
was Foreign Minister,
she was appointed deputy chief
of foreign broadcasting
by the French President himself.
France Monde,
France's new world broadcasting service,
will oversee
French-speaking TV 5 Monde,
and Radio France Internationale.
Alain de Pouzilhac will head the group,
seconded by Christine Ockrent.
M. Pouzilhac
is a presidential appointee,
as is his deputy, Christine Ockrent.
the freedom of the press
has made great strides.
to hype his government's policy on TV.
His wife does it for him every day.
It seems antiquated...
or Soviet.
In my opinion, Claire Chazal,
money and politics
should be kept separate.
Neither should control the other,
especially if the money
also owns big media companies.
This news program made history.
For the first time
since it was privatized,
TF1's independence, live on air.
Not because its journalists
were in league with politicians
but because France's top TV channel
was funded by big business.
Believe me,
the country is in trouble
when very big financial
and industrial interests
are combined with
very big media interests
and also have very close links
with the Government.
Attacked by a parliamentarian
who voted to privatize TF1 in 1987,
The channel's star anchor
won't let anyone
slander her employer,
the Bouygues Group.
And she's not the only journalist
to be employed by a conglomerate.
Here's an example,
this time from public TV.
Tonight there's a meeting
of two big media stars.
One is a famous variety show host,
the other a former news anchor.
Michel Drucker,
past and future employee
of the Lagardere Group,
plays host to Jean-Pierre Elkabbach,
past and present employee
of the same Group.
And who is their guest?
Arnaud Lagardere, their boss.
Arnaud, thanks a million.
