An edition of France 3's regional news for Corsica devoted in its entirety to a major storm striking the island, 2018


Interesting to notice the presence of a ticker during the sponsor, in the last seconds before the newscast, warning the viewer about the weather alert.


It's also interesting that even though this newscast in in French, the headline straps are in Corsican ("Vigilenza rossa: Timpesta Adrian").


Indeed. On the Corsican language editions (which run in the timeslot of either the national editions of the 12/13 and 19/20, or in opt-outs), the straps are in French with occasional subtitling/a summary or some astons in French. Even though many of the onscreen journalists are bilingual, separate presenters present the French and Corsican language editions (unlike, say Alsace, where the 12/13 presenter can occasionally also present the pre-recorded Alsatian language Rund Um programme which follows).
Quatorzine Neko and WW Update gave kudos

Do the Corsican-language editions air on France 3 in Corsica or just on the dedicated regional France 3 Via Stella channel?

Hamburg, Berlin and Munchen all have local stations, poor London cant even get a decent station off the ground. Whilst all the other European cities can sustain one. Like Paris, and even Moscow....

Paris has two. BFM Paris, a rolling news service and IDF1, a general entertainment channel.

London Live probably does a way better job at being a local TV channel than IDF1, which mainly consists in cheap fortune telling shows and telenovelas! Laughing

TVNZ 1, New Zealand, Christmas Day 2009:


"One News: New Zealand's News" - presented by a Brit and an Australian! Still, it was Christmas Day...

They air on both during the normal 12/13 and 19/20 opts, but if I remember correctly, at 12h the Corsican language bulletin is a full one with, a French language “flash” at 13h and the reverse at 19h. On Via Stella there is a 10-20 min Corsican bulletin at around 23h and there are 5 min “flash” bulletins throughout weekday afternoons which are normally voice-overs. All of the other regions’ regional language programmes/bulletins normally are shown at 12h20 with occasional repeats or extras amongst the language non-news programming opt outs.

Wasn't really sure where to put this but it's sad to see TV5Monde has left Sky and is now online only in the UK.

It'll only encourage Francophiles and French ex-pats in the UK to either buy pirate IPTV or do what I do and use a Smart DNS and a sub to Molotov in France or Zattoo in Switzerland.

There is the legal Vision TV Network service which offers France 2, 3 and 5 alongside TV5MONDE, but isn't great value for money.
