Jean Rességuié, a voice that will remain in the memories
In the early 2000s, Jean Rességuié presented the Sports Journal in the morning of RMC, before becoming the “voice of football”. 24 years later, he left the general radio station at the end of this season, activating his transfer clause.
As a reminder, this is a provision allowing a journalist to start a press company from his own initiative, while receiving the dismissal allowances. It can be activated in the event of the sale of a newspaper or periodical.
