Abstract

This article analyzes the share of attention that the French allocate to different media groups, based on Prat [2018]. Based on a survey of 6,000 individuals, we show that the media market is concentrated. The top four groups concentrate 47% of French people's attention. The public group (Radio France and France Televisions) is by far the most concentrated (19.8%), except among the youngest, for whom Meta has the strongest media power. We also show that the abandoned merger between the TF1 and M6 groups would have increased the level of concentration on the market without calling into question the leading position of either the public group or Meta. This work highlights a new tool for measuring concentration in the media market.
