6 Days to TV Launch: The Euronews – Africanews Partnership

It employs about 600 journalists – of more than 30 different nationalities – who cover current events around the world in 13 languages 24/7. Some 426 million households in 158 countries receive euronews which, much more than a TV station, is a multi-platform media hub combining radios, websites, applications, digital technologies….
