More than 100 writers quit French publisher in protest against rightwing owner Vincent Bolloré

More than 100 writers, including Virginie Despentes and Bernard-Henri Lévy, resigned from French publisher Grasset to protest its owner Vincent Bolloré, accused of promoting far-right ideologies through his media empire. The writers condemned being 'hostages in an ideological war' and criticized Bolloré's alignment with conservative and reactionary ideas.
