IPTC member France Télévisions has started signing its daily news broadcasts using C2PA and FranceTV’s C2PA certificate, which is on the IPTC Origin Verified News Publisher List.

This makes France TV the first news provider in the world to routinely sign its daily news output with a C2PA certificate.

The work won FranceTV the EBU Technology & Innovation Award this year.

IPTC has assisted FranceTV in this work and continues to work with FranceTV along with other broadcasters and publishers on signing their content using the C2PA specification. 

A specific page Retrouvez nos JT certifiés (“Find our certified news programmes”) is available on FranceTV’s site franceinfo.fr, where the latest 1pm and 8pm news programmes are published containing a C2PA signature. The page Pour vous informer en toute sécurité contains more information (in French) about FranceTV’s work on transparency and authenticity.

We congratulate FranceTV for their work and look forward to further collaboration in 2026 and beyond.
