Radiodiffusion Française (French pronunciation: [ʁadjodifyzjɔ̃ fʁɑ̃sɛːz]; RDF) was a French public institution responsible for public service broadcasting.
Created in 1944 as a state monopoly (replacing Radiodiffusion Nationale), RDF worked to rebuild its extensive network, destroyed during the war. It was replaced in 1949 by Radiodiffusion-Télévision Française (RTF).
RDF managed four radio stations: Le Programme National (The National Program), Le Programme Parisien (The Parisian Program), Paris-Inter and Radio-Sorbonne (the latter produced by the Sorbonne University). Also, it managed the TV channel RDF Télévision française. All stations are fully run by the French government.
