While the newspaper is the target of a judicial investigation for suspicion of fictitious employment and while the management is trying to defend itself, a dozen journalists from the “Canard enchaîné” announced, via the media, that they were not convinced by this version. . For them, “French social law does not provide for the remuneration of an employee in place of another”.
While their newspaper is the target of a judicial inquiry on suspicion of fictitious employment, a dozen journalists from the chained duck are not convinced by the management’s version. As a reminder, at the beginning of May, one of the journalists from the editorial staff of chained duck filed a complaint against X for misuse of corporate assets and concealment of misuse of corporate assets. He suspects his newspaper of having employed the companion of one of the historical cartoonists for twenty years, without there being any trace of her work.
An “unknown” collaboration
Accusations refuted by the administration committee of the Duck, in this week’s newspaper. The management indicates that the wife of designer André Escaro, Edith, would have been paid to help him “read the press” and that the couple was “used to working in pairs”. Justifications which are far from having satisfied 14 editorial staff, who sign a press release sent to the World and at AFP.
They answer that “No, it’s not a ‘pair’ who drew every week in the newspaper!”. They emphasize that the existence and collaboration of Edith was “unknown” to them. And write: “French social law does not provide for the remuneration of an employee in place of another.”
Finally, they reveal that management spoke of “misconduct” during Monday’s editorial conference. A term that does not appear in the text published in Wednesday’s newspaper, which they regret.
