Der Fränkische Rundfunk (FR) or Franconian Broadcasting Corporation is a state-owned yet independent with regards to reporting and broadcasting, broadcasting company. It was founded in the 1950s after a forced merger of three regional state radio companies and one national tv station. Today it encompasses several radio and tv stations, maintains a state-of-the-art internet presence and a large network of correspondents. Its subsidiary Fränkischer Rundfunk Europa is its more internationally focused outlet.
