The journalist, who assured the interim during the holidays of Jean-Pierre Pernaut then by Marie-Sophie Lacarrau, announced at the end of March his decision to leave her post, fear of “Do too much”. “It was not easy to make this decision. It’s been a while since it was roting in my head. I wanted to have this freedom of choice “, had entrusted the septuagenarian in the columns of “Ouest-France”. But, before making his boxes, Jacques Legros has still five newspapers to present, from Monday 5 to Friday May 9, and there is no doubt that the emotion will be strong when saying goodbye to the viewers of the front page and his faithful team.
“I will cry internally”
For the moment, the journalist from Pas-de-Calais does not want to think about it and prefers to savor each news as if it were the last. While the editorial staff of “media c” went to investigate behind the scenes of his last week in the Journal de la Mi-Journée de la s, the presenter on the departure said that he had not yet completely planned his farewell speech. “I did not write it, I will not write it, I thought it, I imagined it”he slipped, before revealing details on its content, not turned to pathos. “It will not be ‘Oh my God, I will miss you.’ I will tell something that will be addressed directly to Isabelle Ithurburu (His replacement, editor’s note) “. Jacques Legros, not ready to retire media, will nevertheless remain moved. “I’m going to cry internally, and I hope not too externally but it will be hard, I know it. I will miss it, necessarily”projects the one who says he is interested in the radio media.

A message addressed to Isabelle Ithurburu
In an interview with “Télé-Loisirs”, the journalist confirmed wanting a sober departure, without dramaturgy or solemn speech, like his discreet personality. This is why he prefers to bet on improvisation, measured all the same, for his end speech. “If I write it too early, it is not going to get out of the guts enough. It will be licked. It will be a few words, well chosen. If I do it now, it will be more literary than spontaneous. Because I love writing. I want it to be simple and that it comes out of the belly and the heart”he concludes.
