Public challenge

Article Abstract:

TF1 is France's leading commercial TV channel and has long dominated the the overall televison ratings. The weakness of the public channels, France 2 and France 3, has been partially responsible for TF1's leading market share, but the revamped public channels have been more successful since 1993, when TF1's market share of audiences over 4-years-old was 41%. By 1994 it had dropped to just under 40%, while the two public broadcasters both increased their ratings. TF1 is set to remain Frances' leading channel but its declining market share is influencing its operating strategy.
