trumpet Posted June 24, 2007 Share Posted June 24, 2007 I was involved recently with a debate about starting up an English speaking local radio station. I really felt that such a venture was not necessary. We have access to all sorts these days. the Internet. Satellite, even mobile phones. And the even more serious issue we are guests here. Whilst I am opposed to any venture such as this I am interested in sensible (I know) argument. In a local newspaper Le Poher. They have an English page for news and information. Is this enough? Would a station in English help with our integration? C'mon Its Sunday and its raining, what else have you got to do.[8-|] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trumpet Posted June 24, 2007 Author Share Posted June 24, 2007 Thank you for that Punch. I am tuned in to give it a listen. The point about the initial question or debate was, which I perhaps did not make that clear was a local station based in area 22 Brittany. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BJSLIV Posted June 24, 2007 Share Posted June 24, 2007 I suppose it would be a useful target for the Breton Nationalists , anti Brit groups etc to attack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trumpet Posted June 25, 2007 Author Share Posted June 25, 2007 Glad to see that this post has had hardly any interest. When posted in ''The Other House.'' It caused a civil war! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pierre ZFP Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 I was just asking myself the question of would I listen to it? I think the answer is probably ...no. I listen to France Inter for a bit then Cherrie FM and Classic 21 (from Bruxelles) then of course there's the BBC Home Service - especially when TMS is on !
