Serge André Yourevitch Verebrussoff de Beketch (born 12 December 1946, Tours
, Indre-et-Loire
, France
, died 6 October 2007 Clichy
, Hauts-de-Seine
) was a French journalist, story writer for cartoons and writer linked to the extreme-right. He was also the co-founder of Radio Courtoisie

origin and from a Tatar
lineage. His maternal grandfather was a colonel in the French army
; his paternal grandfather was aide-de-camp
to General Anton Denikin, chief of the White Armies
during the Russian Civil War
. De Beketch's father, a non-commissioned officer
in the French foreign legion
was killed in action
at the Battle of Dien Bien Phu
, achieving Mort pour la France
status. After his schooling as an enfant de troupe (military child), de Beketch performed several jobs, including manual labour and working in a bookstore. In 1966 he started doing freelance reporting for the entertainment page of the weekly newspaper Minute
. In 1967, he joined the Israeli Defence Force at the time of the Six-Day War
., but "the fighting went so quickly that he didn't even have time to put on his uniform".
In 1970, de Beketch was hired by the Havas Conseil consultancy, where he took part in creating a media department. One-time freemason and member of the Grande Loge de France
(then the Grande Loge nationale) he quickly distanced himself from freemasonry, as he often took the opportunity to explain. From 1969, René Goscinny
had invited de Beketch to write theatre reviews for the Pilote
weekly. Besides this, he would write various stories in cartoon
form and prepare French versions of the American offerings Eerie
, Creepie and Vampirella
for éditions Publicness. He also worked for the international visual arts review Zoom. In 1975, de Beketch left Pilote following the departure of Goscinny. He became head of information, then chief editor of Minute in 1979. He left Minute following a disagreement about the paper's new direction, and took on the role of editor-in-chief of National-Hebdo at the request of Jean-Marie le Pen
.
In 1987, de Beketch participated with Jean Ferré
in creating Radio Courtoisie after having been ousted from Radio Solidarité. He began a weekly "free news report" (Libre Journal) slot starting at three o'clock on Wednesdays, which continued until his death. In 1990, at the request of the new owner Serge Martinez, de Beketch returned to the lead editorship of Minute. In 1993 he was dismissed from his functions by the editing team who had bought back the paper from Martinez and judged that de Beketch was too politically involved. De Beketch founded his own newspaper with his wife Danièle, called Le Libre Journal de la France courtoise, which, contrary to popular belief, was not a written version of his radio show. De Beketch was a great friend of the journalist and novelist A.D.G., whom he met in 1974 at Minute. A. D. G. was inspired by de Beketch to create his character Sergueï Djerbitskine, alias Machin, alcoholic journalist and anarchist.
De Beketch died from a streptococcus
infection contracted in hospital while being treated for hepatitis B. He had acquired hepatitis fifteen years earlier while being treated for Hodgkin's lymphoma
. His funeral in Paris
was attended by more than 2,000 people including Jean-Marie Le Pen, Bruno Gollnisch
, Bruno Mégret
and Jean Raspail
.
) politics. He preferred to be categorised as a "hard-line royalist
". His views became more radical over the years; thus in 1992 in a reply to Philippe Guilhaume, the former president of the Antenne 2 and FR3 TV stations, de Beketch declared himself to be neither a democrat nor a liberal. According to Le Monde
, "his puns oozed antisemitism, and he never missed an allusion to the genocide of Jews in order to put its size into context"."
De Beketch styled himself as a creationist
, asserting that he didn't believe in evolution, that the world was no older than about ten thousand years and that the flood described in the bible, Noah's ark
and the tower of Babel
were historical facts. De Beketch advised people to read material by the holocaust denier
Robert Faurisson
in order to "escape the dictats of single-mindedness" and "pickle the neurons".
In his radio broadcast, he execrated the "socialist abortion state", "the occupied territories" (by which he meant the deprived multi-cultural suburbs of French cities), "the stinking Karl Zéro
and his anal-whore broadcast" (using the French phrase anal-pute, literally "anal-whore", a pun on Zéro's broadcasting station canal plus
), "crappy woodlice" (referring to journalists), "imbeciles who read Libé" (referring to the left-wing newspaper, Libération
), "scouts" (like Guy Bedos
, Jean-Jacques Goldman
) "who once wouldn't have even been given a Christian burial".
In 1995, de Beketch was communications director for the Toulon
city government, which was then led by the Front National mayor Jean-Marie Le Chevallier. He resigned after four months, assessing that the incompetence of the municipal staff damaged the Front Nationals image. He was also head of the Patriote du Var. In the conflict which pitted Mégret against Le Pen between 1998 and 1999, de Beketch tried in vain to adopt a conciliatory position.
In his broadcasts, Beketch often defended medical therapies rejected by official bodies, such as those of Mirko Beljanski
and Loïc Le Ribault, since he believed that his own medical conditions had been helped by them.
The positions de Beketch took earned him numerous court appearances, and several convictions. He was condemned on two counts for defamation relating to Olivier Biffaud, journalist for Le Monde. On the first count de Beketch was ordered to pay a single franc
in damages and 8,000 francs court costs. On the second count, he was ordered to pay 80,000 francs in damages as well as a similar 8,000 francs in costs for "affecting the sensitivity and dignity of the person concerned."
In 2006, de Becketch was a signatory to "the call of the 25" a petition requesting a presidential pardon for Michel Lajoye.
De Beketch was also a staunch defender of the Riaumont
children's village.
