French Musical Broadcasting in 1937
Résumé
We have previously seen that the period of Leon Blum's " Front populaire " coincided with the cropping up of some big artistically innovating private stations. Throughout the first semester of 1937, Musician Robert Jardillier, who was also Minister of Posts and Telephones in Blum's first government, enforces a policy of artistic implementation of the Public network, as he had stated in the autumn of 1936. By monitoring the musical broadcasting of Radio-Paris (also named Le Poste national), which was the spearhead of the public broadcasting force, we can easily notice marks of its action. Even more than the previous year, this station is different from its great competitor, the private station, Radio-Cité, which we had chosen as a model of French private stations of the prewar years. Whereas the volume of the musical programs is decreasing here and there, opposed artistic stances are confirming that their respective policies are matching their different conceptions of the media. If the programmers of the stations show a common intent of acculturation, their means of operating are more different than in the past and they widen the gap already noticed between the public network and the private stations.
