Pierre Lescure tackles Claire Chazal for her attitude
It’s with the newspaper The Parisian, Saturday January 21, that Pierre Lescure (77 years old) commented on his new cultural program and the fact that he succeeds Claire Chazal (66 years old). “I understand that she is bitter but her campaign is still a bit excessive. At first, I didn’t even know if my show would be on France 2, France 3 or France 5… I found it a little inflated that it became a great national cause in her eyes when she said neither hello nor thank you to Laurent Goumarre, whom she had replaced at the time (early 2016)“, answered frankly the one who is also a columnist in It’s up to you.

Claire Chazal: time for retirement?
The former queen of the JT of TF1, who had found refuge on the public service after being thanked for the first chain against a large check – VOD had mentioned in 2015 a staggering amount of 3.5 million euros, a sum never officially confirmed – experienced extremely badly the judgment of Passage of the arts. “Claire Chazal was furious. And as usual, she called the whole earth…“, said a witness a few days ago in the columns of the newspaper The Parisian.
As for the former Patrick Poivre d’Arvor, she also reacted. “It’s rough. And it’s a great feeling of injustice. I absolutely did not see it coming. I defended the quality of the show, its content, the variety of its programming, but it was not negotiable“, she reacted to Telerama.
