Preserving such artifacts allows us to appreciate the stories they hold and the contexts in which they were created. Radiodiffusion-Télévision Française (RTF), established on February 9, 1949, was the French national public broadcaster television organization. It replaced the post-war “Radiodiffusion Française” (RDF), founded in 1945 to replace Radiodiffusion Nationale (RN), created in 1939. RTF was both state-owned and state-controlled, with budgets set by the French National Assembly under the direction of the Ministry of Information. RTF experienced fierce competition from French-speaking stations in neighboring countries. In 1964, RTF was replaced by the Office de Radiodiffusion Télévision Française (ORTF), which operated until the end of 1974
