His article, and more exactly a Nice-Matin tweet referring to it, provoked hundreds of reactions.
As a tweet: “The old house of Jean Maret in Vence soon razed and replaced by a building.”
Many Internet users have not gone further. For them, it was folded.
However, it was enough to click on the link, and to read even the title of the article, to understand that it was indeed the house of Jean Maret, the former chief magistrate of Venice (1959 to 1983 ).
And not that of actor Jean Marais, buried in Vallauris.

Reading too fast, it happens to everyone, nothing too serious. But there followed dozens of tweets from Internet users deploring the quality of journalism, with a few names of birds: “ignorant“, “bunch of dummies“, “bravo to the journalist of this cabbage leaf“, “Mr. Jean Marais must turn around without his grave“.
Others, much more sympathetic and benevolent, tried to point out this imaginary error to our editorial staff.
The vast majority had fortunately taken the trouble to read the subject and laughed at seeing twittos caught in the act of Sunday laziness.
The Nice-Matin editorial staff could be sorry that “readers“do not go further than a simple tweet, do not read our content, but above all insult in the second. So go, alas, social networks.
But she prefers to take the side of the laughers. The times really need it. This Twitter sequence even made our colleague Christophe Beaugrand “laugh”, who knows the region perfectly, and who followed the reactions under the tweet: “But this day is surreal, only world champions”, he had fun.
A lesson from this story: always read the articles before commenting. And we advise you to go read Alice David’s one on Jean Maret’s house!
