i>Télé was a French 24-hour rolling news channel that launched on 4 November 1999. In 2017, the channel was rebranded as CNews, though it still retains much of its original format and programming. CNews broadcasts a mix of news and current affairs programming, as well as talk shows, documentaries, and sports coverage. The channel is known for its live coverage of breaking news events, as well as its in-depth analysis of political and social issues in France and around the world.
One of the unique features of CNews is its "Face à l'info" ("Facing the News") program, which is hosted by prominent journalist and political commentator Éric Zemmour. The show has been controversial due to Zemmour's views on immigration, Islam, and other social issues, and has been criticized for promoting far-right ideology.
CNews is available to viewers in France on both cable and satellite television, as well as through digital platforms like IPTV and online streaming services. The channel has a strong online presence and is active on social media, allowing viewers to engage with its content and stay up-to-date on the latest news and events.
