The wave of departures no longer ends on RMC. The program “The After Foot” is even amputated by one of its pillars.

Thursday evening, Jérôme Thomas participated in his latest program of “After Foot”. Since 2007, this journalist has been the producer of “the show that says aloud what the world of football thinks low”, on RMC.

Daniel Riolo was, it seems, not aware of this departure.
“I didn't know it. It's so weird to know that after twenty years, he's going to get out, it leaves me speechless. It's a shock. I knew him as a man in Ligue 2. The first time I saw him was in a poor restaurant in Grenoble ”said the editorialist on the antenna.

This departure from Jérôme Thomas lengthens the list of RMC employees who chose to leave the general radio station at the end of the season. During the previous weeks, Jean SouveGuié, Thibaut Giangrande and Nicolas Vilas had made the same decision.

RMC, cascade departures

“This is the life of a businessreacted Gilbert Brisbois. As part of the change of shareholder of our society, there is a conscience clause that offers journalists an opportunity. We wish them good luck. »» This is a provision allowing a journalist to leave a press company from his own initiative, while receiving dismissal allowances. It can be activated in the event of the sale of a newspaper or periodical.

Last June, Altice Media, the parent company of the BFMTV and RMC radio television channel, was bought by the CMA CGM group, led by the billionaire Rodolphe Saadé. The amount of the transaction was then 1.55 billion euros.
