Media set-up in PACA
: Mediaterranean.
The regional media and press panorama reflects the diversity that characterises
Provence-Alpes Côte d'Azur.
Listing all the media would be a difficult mission, given the variety of supports,
the number of issues..
Regarding the audio-visual, apart from national TV channels and radios that have
regional and local information coverages, the région has its own Tv channels and
of course a multiplicity of local radios. TV programs' production is also very
dynamic, some organisms are gathering TV's from all the countries bordering the
Mediterranean Sea to share the programs' costs of production and broadcast them
on their domestic channels.
| A good example of this kind of shared production is Mediterraneo
: this program is co-produced by Jordanian, Palestinian, Algerian, Egyptian, Italian
and Fench TV's. On a weekly basis it gives a picture on day-to-day life in these
countries under its own light. |

Printed press panorama is even richer. Apart from the national and international
dailies and the daily local press, many other organs are operating on the regional
scene.
Most of the communities have their own printed media, in this regard, there are
magazines adressed to the Dutchs, Germans, Swedishs, Englishs, Arabs, and even
Russians living on the french riviera.
Beyond this communitary press, the regional economy is widely covered in the additional
local pages of national magazines. Another approach of the regional economic press
is the localy produced one.
Many magazines are dealing with the different economic sectors. We can mention
the " Journal d'Internet " which covers all the topics related to the ICT industry
in the region and will soon offer pages for other countries. L'Antenne is a Marseille
produced newspaper and the only French publication dealing with the transport
industry on a daily basis. Provence Méditerranée Economie is a regional economy
oriented, monthly that gathers articles covering all the activities in Provence,
Var, and part of Vaucluse.
Most of the departmental or regional institutions and professional associations,
publish their own information bulletin.
It is worth saying that new players are now entering the information providers'
Market. Backed with ISP and private companies, web sites are now offering a daily,
customised information. They are increasing their penetration rate of the market,
traditional daily newspapers have detected the risk and are now ofering an on-line
edition .
