## About

France 24 is funded by the French state yet built to be believed abroad, a public broadcaster that guards its editorial independence as its core asset. In English, French, Arabic and Spanish it covers the world with a reporting record fact-checkers rate highly, which is exactly why authoritarian governments keep switching it off. Banned across the Sahel and blocked in Russia, it has become a barometer of who fears outside news.

## Profile

- **Funding:** Mainly French public funding via the state budget after the 2022 licence-fee abolition, plus some advertising.

## What the position means

TOLD classifies what an outlet publishes over time, based on ownership, funding
and focus. It describes a pattern; it is not a rating of quality and not a
ranking. Nothing in TOLD sorts, hides or promotes a source by its position.
State-aligned and partisan outlets are in the catalogue on purpose, labelled.
