Job Jaffré

To bring about a new increased circulation for the newspaper, he emphasised gossip, lurid headlines and scandal stories.

[2] Under Jaffré, the journal also published a number of articles supporting antisemitic acts under German occupation.

Following the mass arrest of Jews in Paris known as the Vel' d'Hiv Roundup on 16 and 17 July 1942, L'Heure Bretonne published a front-page article entitled À la porte les juifs et les enjuivés ("Show the Door to the Jews and the Judaized") under the signature "DR".

[3] In the same vein, Jaffré, under his pseudonym "Tug", published a denunciation of the bombings committed by the forces of "youtre-Atlantique", a wordplay on "outre-Atlantique" ("over the Atlantic") and "youtre", a derogatory term for "Jew".

In 1955 he became a writer for La Liberté du Morbihan, which had replaced the defunct Nouvelliste de Lorient.
