The 2014 municipal polls, first serial of the new Angers télé

Is it a coincidence? Just two days after the end of the 25th European first films festival, Angers télé will say "action". And the city will be able to look itself on the cathodic mirror. The absence of a local channel could not go on, writes Angers town hall on its website, pointing out the gap of the state channel : "Angers was never provided with a local editorial board of France 3"...

But on February 29th, serious things are starting. If Angers tele starts, rightly, at low scale, the first time schedule is not very convincing : sports on Monday, economy on Tuesday, associations on Wednesday, soccer on Thursday (what are sports on Monday?) and culture on Friday. On Saturday and Monday, news are in weekend... It sounds like fish and ships on Sunday, roasted pork on Monday... Twice a month, Angers télé will dedicate a programm to one of the districts of the city : they are twelve. What it will cover after?

Hopefully, the starting will concide with the municipal campaign of 2014 and that is a good serial. The debate between left and right and inside left and right should ensure long hours of programs. Those circumstances will also allow the viewers to check the independance of the editorial line. The first shots will be a festival. Good luck!
