Comité Français de Radio-Télévision

Comite Francais de Radio-Television, also known as CFRT, is a non-profit organization headquartered in Paris, France. Founded in 1950, it employs approximately 70 individuals. The company's main product is entertainment content rights. Functioning as a French audiovisual production company, it was founded on August 25, 1950, by Father Raymond Pichard. CFRT is the historic producer of Le Jour du Seigneur, a television program broadcast every Sunday on France 2, which holds the distinction of being the longest-running television program in France. Its operational model is that of a hybrid producer, relying on public service broadcasting contracts (with France Télévisions), private donations, and legacies. The organization produces and distributes television programs and documentaries with the mission of facilitating an encounter between contemporary culture and the Catholic faith, serving both a religious and a cultural educational purpose.
