SFR mikt op meerderheidsbelang in mediabedrijf NextRadioTV
SFR wacht op groen licht van toezichthouder CSA voor een meerderheidsbelang in mediabedrijf NextRadioTV.  Het is echter onbekend hoe groot het aandeel van SFR zal worden. Bij de aankondiging van het nieuws maakte SFR bekend dat de media-tak, inclusief SFR Press, onder leiding komt te staan van Alain Weill. In april vorig jaar bereikte SFR een overeenkomst met Altice over de koop van een belang van 49 procent in NextRadioTV. Hierdoor kwam de waardering van NextRadioTV uit op 741 miljoen euro.
