Vincent Bolloré : Is he as bad as we would like to believe ?
Vincent Bolloré, what a great project to tackle the French media king without any fear for his safety. But we can ask ourselves if Bolloré is so bad that we would like to believe it?
Vincent Bolloré is a very well known French businessman. He is well know for his important activity in the media. He's at the head of the Vivendi group and was at the head of the Canal + group until recently. A longer biography of this man is important to understand this character.
His fortune is estimated at 7.3 billion euros, making him the tenth French fortune. He was appointed in 1975, at only 23 years old, as director junior of the Rothschild financial company, which is allied with the Bolloré family. Already, he has the typical path of someone who has succeeded in business thanks to his parents.
His family is at the origin of a large international group, mainly in the transport sector, since 1861. His career is worthy of this kind of businessman. He began managing some business of his family and it's in 2000 that he began his involvement in the media, something that interests us the most.
Vivendi acquires the Havas group, which produces advertising, documentaries and TV shows but also newspapers like Direct Matin. In 2012 he became the majority shareholder of the Vivendi group, he became one of the most powerful men in France at the same time.
In September 2015 he became the head of the group Canal Plus to redress the finances of the channel. A very good idea since Canal Plus was at a loss, it was necessary to do something to save the group. Finally, at the heart of many polemics, he will succeed in destroying what we called "Canal Plus spirit" while the number of subscriptions always drops.
At the end of July 2015, Vincent Bolloré personally banned the broadcast by Canal + of the documentary "Tax evasion" planned in "Special Investigation" because friends of him are concerned by the investigation. Many actual and former journalists of the group still admit to undergoing terrible pressure from the businessman who wants to totally control his image.
There are far too many scandals around Bolloré and I don't want to talk for hours about this man. Even more recently he has been involved for a corruption case concerning the port activities of the Bolloré group in Africa.
Finally nothing suggests that this billionaire could be Good and I don't want to talk about him more than that. I think this man is deeply hateful and we don't need theorem to prove it. Vincent Bolloré is definitely a Bad Celebrity.
In the next investigation, I will examine a very funny celebrity but is it natural? I'm talking about Marina Fois. So Good Ce or Bad Ce?
