LCI was rumoured to be sold as well, but it seems after the significant investment TF1 have put into the channel recently that they want to keep it in the family.
Thank goodness for that, I have always thought that it would be a bad idea selling LCI
Europe 1 is now simulcasting CNEWS's weekend matinale programme. It was feared that they'd be sharing CNEWS content despite the radio station being more impartial than the sister tv channel.

That's the last thing that I would expect from a station like Europe 1
The CNEWS/Europe 1 simulcast is now 6-9am (It was 6-7am last weekend), the difference being that they're trying to keep to Europe 1's radio show clock format with regular weather updates and the big interview which is also done from CNEWS's studio with Europe 1 banners on the screens behind.
The final hour of CNEWS's matinale programme went out on the tv channel only and reverted to the old weekend format.

May I answer you. After the first steps in the PACA, Centre Val de Loire and Normandie grand régions, the new local DOG style has already been deployed in the Pays de la Loire service. So far, these four are the only ones with that DOG style, with the rest coming by the end of the year. Additionally, early this year, there was the launch of the 18.30 show, which focuses on longer-form lighter stories, which connects to the 19/20 broadcast, as well as television simulcasts of France Bleu local morning shows.
So far, however, there are other smaller plans. As a pilot project test, the Nouvelle Aquitaine and Bretagne grand régions are extending their afternoon opt-outs with a new slot between 14h00 and 16h00, starting in the New Year. Additionally, in the local Rouen office, there is a test of a completely new gallery for transmission and production using automation, which would be eventually rolled out to the rest of local studios and the Paris main studio.
This is being done using existing budget numbers, which has led to compliants from the unions (the French tend to be very reactive in workflow changes) and many instances of industrial action. In April, a technicians strike (which coincided with the COVID-19 Delta crisis) caused the regions to alternate in the production of regional newscasts in a grand région basis.

I was wondering what about the France 3 national feed? What is going to show instead of these regional slots? Will it even have a new DOG style?

Ensemble c'est mieux ! alternates between regions on France 3 Sat, while Édition des Regions continues in the regional news slots.
Medianext.MX post_id=44661 time= user_id=1455 Wrote:Groupe M6’s Téva has been rebranded this weekend. The rebrand, by Gédéon and Laplage (who have rebranded most of M6’s legacy channels in the last two years), emphasizes the diacritic accent in the logo as a graphical resource for all purposes, as well as a more feminist tone of voice and message. The wordmark, which has been the same since its inception in 1998, has been tweaked, and even stripped of the green box used since its inception (and tweaked in 2014 with the former look).

Here’s the press release (in French), as published by specialised publication CB News.
I like the music Laplage made for this rebrand too, very catchy and female-driven with the female voices approach.
Gédéon and Laplage have really done well with these recent rebrands.
Here's a look at the new Téva in action.

France.tv has had a pop-up James Bond channel this weekend with two days of scheduled Bond films rather than having them as VOD.
In kind of related news, the two French national DAB+ multiplexes officially launched yesterday, along the Paris - Lyon - Marseille Autoroute corridor.
25 stations are carried across the two ensembles, including the national Radio France services, NRJ Group, M6 Group and others.

The question of radio should belong to Metropol, but, as you said, it is appropiate for the purposes of this topic. As you said, there are these 23 existing stations, both FM and webradio services, from the three big groups, as well as Altice Média and smaller players LVMH/Groupe Les Echos-Le Parisien, Skyrock and Radio Latina. There are two new exclusive stations, BFM Radio (from Altice), which is merely the audio simulcast of BFM TV which was only available on their website and app, and AirZen (from Mediameeting, programmer of Sanef's autoroute radio), which focuses on wellbeing, health and lifestyle talk, alongside an upbeat AC music format aimed at a women audience.
I've had a listen to BFM Radio and they even take the tv adverts (pub).
