French shows or news

Post by kortmorningstar »

Hey everyone! Does anyone know of any live or streaming services online that carry French shows or news? I’m looking to work on listening comprehension in immersion programs. Thank you for your help and suggestions!

On some free streaming services you can find Euronews in French. Some Euronews Français programs are in French, others in other European languages with French subtitles.

Then there is TV5Monde... if you can get it to work (there are "geographical restrictions" etc).

Tubi free streaming service has some French movies (which you can usually watch with English subtitles), although the process of finding something you will consider watchable can be time consuming. (All foreign language films are lumped together and not classified by language nor genre, but if you register, the algorithm will eventually learn what you like and start putting what you might be interested in on the top).

Le Monde and Le Figaro are newspapers, but both include some short videos, and these do not seem to have geographical restrictions.

I think this one is French? It's a good story about a girl who leads a band of kids to escape the Nazis.

I use an android app called Radio Française, which offers several news stations from France. There are many choices, so one can easily find one of interest. I also watch France 24 via an app on my phone and Google TV.
