  • Short but great

    France24 does real embedded, produced, truly global journalism and it shows. I know it’s expensive, but I wish there were more of it; we need more than just the BBC, NPR, AJ & DW. (Side note: From what I can tell, France24 reporting seems less biased and more respectful of non-Western Europeans than either the BBC or DW, so congrats on doing that mostly right too!)

  • I Love These Focus Pieces

    I love the Focus segments on France 24, which take me to different places around the world. You meet people from other countries and hear their stories. The professionalism in these 5-6 minute pieces is A++.

    It’s nice to have the segments as podcasts, so you can listen or watch on the go.
