France’s public broadcasting unions strike against media merger

France’s public broadcasters, including FRANCE 24, joined strikes on Monday against a proposed merger that would unite France Médias Monde (FMM) with France Télévisions, Radio France and the National Audiovisual Institute (INA) under the direction of a single chief executive officer. Unions said the proposed holding would be “extremely dangerous” both for employees and for the independence of news coverage.
