Antisemitism? Editorial Staff Wanted to Cancel Cardinal Sarah
As a consequence, the editorial - the "Society of Journalists of Paris Match" - blamed the magazine's owner for “interference.” If Sarah were a Jew instead of being only a black man, the staff's behaviour would be called "antisemitism."
Sarah was interviewed by Philippe Labro who is close to the oligarch Vincent Bolloré, the owner of Vivendi, the largest shareholder of the Lagardère group to which Paris Match belongs.
The staff admitted on Twitter.com that their editor-in-chief tried even on the day of the editorial deadline to convince Lagardère to reconsider the choice.
"We fear that this coverage will harm the [anti-Catholic] image of Paris Match," the staff wrote belittling world-known Sarah as “little known" to the "general public” [= anti-Church journalists] and claiming that his “most controversial [= opposing the Paris Match activists'] ideology "have been passed over in silence.”
