Overview
- C8 and NRJ12 have filed an appeal with the Council of State after being excluded from the upcoming TNT frequency reallocation by Arcom.
- The public rapporteur of the Council of State suggested that the appeal might be premature as the selection process is not yet finalized.
- C8, owned by Canal+ under Vincent Bolloré, has launched a petition gathering nearly 700,000 signatures to support its case.
- Arcom's decision, announced in July, involves reallocating 15 television frequencies, excluding C8, NRJ12, and the web channel Le Média.
- CNews, another Bolloré-owned channel, was recently fined €150,000 for broadcasting inaccurate statements, coinciding with C8's legal battle.
