Like lying by omission, or relaying some false news, and apologizing a day or two later (discretly when the harm is already done). It is pretty obvious our media (at least in France) serve some agenda when you look at their finances. The rich guys that detain theses medias know how to make money. Meaning it is worth keeping these medias despite what it cost them each year. And why would you keep an unprofitable business ? Unless it serves them in another manner... |

Le Monde, the most popular newspaper, which is billionaire owned is profitable. Le Figaro, owned by Dassault (industrial group), second best, is also profitable.
TF1, most popular private TV news network, owned by Bouygues (industrial group), is also profitable. M6, second best (among the private ones), is also profitable.
Le Canard enchaîné and Mediapart, two of the most hard hitting investigative medias out there, are independent.
All of this is easily found public information, which conflicts with the picture you're trying to paint. Of course there are rich people pushing their agenda with media (Bolloré pushed the far-right Zemmour really hard), but it's not the norm and it's false to say that French media is kept afloat by rich people's money to push an agenda when they're all profitable.
