The pressure rises… This Monday, July 14, Isabelle Ithurburu will present on TF1 his very first TV news at 1 p.m., as a joker by Marie-Sophie Lacarrau who is on vacation. On this occasion, the one who succeeds Jacques Legros, who remained in this position for 26 years, made confidences to the “Parisian”Of the day.
“You just have to take tests!”
To journalist Kevin Boucher-Rappet, who signs this paper, Isabelle Ithurburu told behind the scenes of her arrival at the controls of the mid-day news meeting. She explained: “At the editorial staff, many worried that there is still no joker at 8 p.m., after the departure of Julien Arnaud and while Gilles Bouleau’s holidays approached. And there, laughing, someone said to me: “You just have to take tests!”. The team tells me that they will take the opportunity to do tests for the 1 p.m. because Jacques Legros had suggested that he would stop this year or the next one. They pushed me to contact Thierry Thuillierbut I didn’t do it”.
The forties continued by engaging in the topic of the phone call 72 hours after the information director: “The others had blown my name to him. I went there without hoping to be there, since I was in front of LCI figures in particular. And several weeks later, I was offered to be the new Joker …”.
In the same article, the former flagship host of Canal +, specializing in sport and especially in rugby, did not fail to be known: “Jacques Legros advised me to keep my smile, not to do too much because the news is already anxiety -provoking. And Marie-Sophie reminded me that this newspaper is above all that of viewers”.
