THE MEDIA OFFERING FOR TURKISH COMMUNITIES IN FRANCE: FROM THE PRESS TO SATELLITE TELEVISION The aim of this article is to propose an as exhaustive overview as possible of all media available to Turkish-speaking immigrants in France. It is also to offer a review of the evolution of the media offering over the past forty-four years (1957-2001) of development of migration, based on the French case. Few studies in France have been devoted to this aspect of integration of Turkish peoples in the host country, a subject on which relatively little is known despite several decades of presence. The move from isolated and ill-informed immigrants - truly suffering from that isolation - in the 1960s and early '?70s, to families with satellite televisions, VCRs, camcorders, newspapers, and so forth, in the last decade of the century, was big, fast and often surprising.
