MEDIA monolith Hachette Filipacchi, already fearing an anti-French backlash, has a bigger problem: Saddam Hussein owns a $90 million stake in its parent company.

Surprised I haven't done some multiple posts today myself, given the trouble I've had with FR. She's running poorly on this end.
There appears to be good money in being a despotic dictator!
