Dean of active journalists in France, Philippe Bouvard, who joined Le Figaro as a courier in 1952, has announced that he is leaving the airwaves of RTL. “I made the decision, but little by little, to withdraw, to say goodbye or to say farewell (…) I lived and sometimes in which I participated, we will hear a trickle of what remains to me of voice. But it's over.he declared. The latter, aware that he is reaching the twilight of his life, recently expressed his last wish.
Philippe Bouvard's wish before dying

The dean, who has a critical spirit towards himself, thus admitted his wrong and evoked one of his last wishes. “My misogyny was that of the comics of my time. But it has diminished a lot.

I had 200 cars, three villas with three swimming pools when I didn't even know swim”. Then to end on this note: “If I had to talk about my life with the critical spirit that I reserve for others, I would not be tender.”

I'm going as you can when you've just reached your 96th year of age. That's a lot. It doesn't go without a few problems and these are not problems that we can believe to be solved”. The famous journalist then mentioned know the sight occurred in 2019: “I was one day at the Monaco casino (….)
