France Launched its World TV Channel
The article highlights an important issue related to the globalization of Media. France joined the leading global television channels ( BBC and CNN) in order to cover the worldwide news. The creation of this channel will help the French to know about the global events and about all what is going on in the world. However, we have to raise one question here " is the coverage going to be done using a French perspective or a global perspective?". The president of the new French channel answered this question by saying that the Chanel is going to present the news with French eyes and the journalists stated that they are going to present the news with a French perspective. This contradiction in the way of handling the news can effect the credibility of this channel.
I think that in order to join the global battle of images, there is a need for the establishment of such channels that will present news from over the world and let people think and reflect about them. There is a need for global languages in this kind of channels as a result the French channel will surely use many languages to present the news.
