The headquarters in Paris of France Télévisions

France Télévisions (pronounced /fʁɑ̃s televiʒjɔ̃/) is the French public national television broadcaster. It is funded mostly by television licences and advertising.

Channels

National

• France 2 - Primary Channel with the second largest viewing audience (after TF1)
• France 3 - Network of regional stations
• France 4 - Only available on digital television, concentrates on the Arts, Music and Entertainment
• France 5 - Focuses on Employment, Education and Health
• Réseau France Outre-mer (RFO) - a network of radio and television stations operating in French overseas departments and territories around the world
  • France Ô - RFO's satellite channel, featuring only programming from RFO's regions

Thematic

France Télévisions has interest in a number of thematic cable/satellite channels in France:

• Gulli
• Planète Juniors (formerly Ma Planète)
• Planète Thalassa
• Mezzo

It has a significant share in the ARTE Consortium that manages the bilingual French-German channel (ARTE shares its analog channel with France 5, but both channels have separate full-time services on cable, satellite and digital broadcasts).

France Télévisions also controls the new R1 digital multiplex that currently hosts France 2, France 3, France 5, Arte and La Chaîne parlementaire. France 4 was originally on the R1 multiplex but was moved to R2 to allow space for regional channels on R1
