2024 - France 3: France Télévisions will remove the national newspapers from the channel

On the air since 1986, the national newspapers of France 3 will disappear in 2023 in favor of the regional editions, which will also deal with national and international news, as revealed by the unions of the group on Monday July 4, 2022.

A page from the history of France 3 will shoot in 2023. Present on the antenna of the public channel since 1986, national newspapers will cease to be broadcast that yearas the unions of France Télévisions bitterly revealed on Monday July 4, 2022. “What a betrayal on the part of Delphine Ernotte! Under cover of low cost regionalization, it suppresses the national newspapers of France 3“, in particular wrote on Twitter the delegate of the National Union of Journalists (SNJ), Serge Cimino, who had run for the presidency of France Télévisions at the end of Delphine Ernotte-Cunci’s first mandate.

The national newspapers of France 3 will eventually be replaced by extended regional editions that will last one hour. The latter will also deal with national and international news, which will continue to be produced by Paris following the merger of the editorial staff of France 2 and France 3. Concretely, each of the 24 regional editions of France 3 will be free to include the subjects she wishes in her news. “For instance, the collapse of the Marmolada glacier in the Dolomites could be dealt with by Paris from the perspective of climate change, but the Grenoble editorial staff will be able to provide the local insights it deems necessary, and which will necessarily be different from the choices that Limoges could make“, explained France Télévisions to World.

The newspaper specifies that the new regional editions of France 3 should be called Here noon and Here evening, in reference to the name of the new platform common to the various regional branches of the public channel. The President of France Télévisions will officially present this reform initiated as part of the regionalization of France 3 during a press conference organized on Wednesday July 6, 2022. “After Le Soir 3 closed three years agoDelphine Ernotte removes the national editions of France 3 to undoubtedly please politicians This is an inadmissible bloodletting for national information“, lambasted for his part Serge Cimino.
