[edit] History

France Info was founded in 1987 by Roland Faure and Jérôme Bellay. Year on year, its audience grew, notably after the social conflicts of 1995, 2003, and 2006. Frequently, it is estimated to be the fourth national radio network in terms of listener numbers, behind RTL, NRJ and France Inter.

France Info has offices in Paris, Lyon, Marseille, and Toulouse. In other areas the France Bleu network is used.
