"An administrator, sitting in the front row, has a fatalistic view: "How can we be surprised when he always does this? It's his trademark: taking control without paying the price. And yet, we understood very early on that the white knight had entered the house to get the most beautiful girl in the family." The other fortunes of the family capitalism, who came to support Arnaud Lagardère out of loyalty to the memory of his father, Jean-Luc-Bernard Arnault, Marc Ladreit de Lacharrière-let it happen."

"The thesis of the left-wing alter-globalist magazine is relatively simple: when the leader of the Italian right is openly the owner of newspapers and television channels, the leader of the UMP exercises indirect, and therefore necessarily more "insidious," control of information through his friends who are media tycoon shareholders. But the underlying tactic of power would be the same. Politis lists: "Martin Bouygues (with TF1), the Dassault family (with Le Figaro, Valeurs actuelles...), Bernard Arnault (Les Echos, Investir, Radio Classique), the one who presents him as his 'brother': Arnaud Lagardère (Europe 1, Paris-Match, Le Journal du dimanche, Elle...), or even the Chirac sympathizer François Pinault (Le Point), Jean-Claude Dassier (who became president of Olympique de Marseille after having led the LCI newsroom)...." Forming an impressive network of influence."
