Question 24680 — audiovisual and communication

Summary

Mr. Loïc Prud'homme draws the attention of the Minister of Culture to the “Radio France 2022” project which plans the elimination of the local FIP radio teams in Bordeaux, Nantes and Strasbourg. However, FIP radio and its local branches are popular with the French: nearly 50,000 people have signed the “#Fip Always” petition. The response to questions asked by other deputies from Gironde about FIP ​​does not respond at the request of listeners and local actors. The people of Girondins, Nantes and Strasbourg appreciate FIP for its musical programming, of course, but also for the invitations and relevant information on local cultural and associative life. These are these 800 monthly announcements on concerts, exhibitions and outings, recommended by local teams who know the cultural landscape perfectly, and made during dropouts premises of FIP which gives FIP real added value compared to online music distribution platforms. Allowing all French people to listen to FIP on radios equipped for digital terrestrial radio (DAB+) is a good thing, but it does not exclude the possibility of local dropouts. The DAB+ network is in fact designed to broadcast nationally, but also in more defined areas. For Gironde for example, 3 zones (Bordeaux, Arcachon and expanded Bordeaux) are currently proposed for the DAB+ network. Finally, to be able to listen to the radio via the DAB+ network, you will need to have a specifically equipped radio, which will be far from being the case for the French population at the end of June 2020. He therefore asks them if they intend to take into account this possibility of zoning in the broadcast of FIP nationally with the radio terrestrial digital in order to preserve, or even develop, local FIP stations, and if given the poor equipment of households with stations equipped with DAB+, it intends to allow the local FIP antennas broadcast on the FM band to continue beyond June 30, 2020.
