A French Twist To World News.

By ZimJournalists Arise
Not to be outdone by USA’s CNN, the British’s BBC, the Middle East’s Al-Jazeera, the French have launched their own 24 hour news channel this week. The channel which will be televised across the globe, seeks to articulate France’s vision and values to the world 24/7. Televised broadcast on two channels will be transmitted to Europe, Middle East and Africa via satellite to 75 million households in more than 90 countries. ZimJournalists Arise could not immediately establish whether or not Zimbabwean on satellite will be able to access the channel. To date only Americans living in Washington dc who have Comcast cable will able to view. An Arabic language channel is to air next year, with Spanish expected to follow in the next three years
