Altice Media

Altice Media is a French media organisation that produces and distributes news and business content. Its core products include the 24‑hour news television channel BFMTV. It also operates the business‑focused channel BFM Business. The group runs the talk radio station RMC. In addition to broadcast, Altice Media maintains digital platforms that extend its news offerings online. These services primarily serve French‑speaking audiences in France and are available nationwide.

Altice Media focuses on news and business journalism through its television and radio outlets, combining television, radio and digital channels to deliver integrated news experiences to its audience. Structurally, Altice Media underwent a notable ownership change when CMA CGM completed its acquisition of the group in 2024. The acquisition was announced alongside assurances of editorial independence and the retention of the existing leadership team. Prior to the acquisition, the organisation was under different ownership. The 2024 cyberattack on BFMTV and RMC’s social media accounts highlighted the organisation’s visibility and the importance of safeguarding its digital communication channels. This incident occurred amid the ownership transition, prompting rapid intervention by the parent company to remove the content and initiate legal proceedings against the perpetrators.
