Jean-Michel Baylet is a prominent local politician, now a Minister in the government and owner of several south-west newspapers, including La Depeche du Midi. Some concern has been expressed that he could use the media to promote official policy, and opposition politicians have withdrawn some advertising from the Depeche.
M Baylet has stepped down from his position as chairman of the group, appointing his wife in his place.
