French Musical Broadcasting in 1938 ; French Musical Broadcasting in 1938: An Ongoing Comparison of Radio-Paris and Radio-Cité
Abstract
We are continuing our monitoring of the musical broadcasting of the prewar years through the comparison between Radio-Paris and Radio-Cité, two models of the French double " public / private " network. In 1937, one could observe that behind the general drop of the global figure of musical programs, those stations confirmed, by opposite artistic stances, their respective policies which corresponded to their conception of the media. In 1938, while government influence on the public stations is strengthening, without any benefit as regards the improvement of the programs, the commercial stations, fortified by some years of experience, adjust their time schedules in accordance with the success encountered by their new formulas. Responding to the expectations of their audience, they increase the entertainment programs without neglecting the music lovers.
