rkolsen 1684 Posted August 31, 2016 Share Posted August 31, 2016 Starting September 1 there will be a new news channel in France dubbed FranceInfo. franceinfo: is owned by France Télévisions, Radio France, France Médias Monde, Institut national de l'audiovisuel. I don't speak French but here's the channel's website. The channels slogan translated into English is "Colon, open info". Here's a link to the YouTube live stream which is nothing but a barker channel. Not sure if it will be geoblocked when it launches. And a behind the scenes reel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Zn-WES_lVo Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/15326-new-french-news-channel-franceinfo/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheRolyPoly 2416 Posted September 3, 2016 Share Posted September 3, 2016 Sorry to double post, but here's what I've learned about the channel so far... The morning program is "6 : 09h30" meaning that its from 6:00-9:30am, which must mean that franceinfo's broadcast day starts at 6:00am Paris time/12:00 Midnight Washington time. France 24 (French) takes over during the overnight hours from 12:00 Midnight-6:00am. franceinfo - deux points ouvrez l'info. TNT Canal 27.
