How these French media benchmarks are built

Benchmark updated :

Nonli's social listening measures public video views on the main Facebook page or Instagram account for each included media brand. Every benchmark on this page is calculated from the visible tables in our monthly articles; values are never copied into a separate dataset.

The current scope covers French national news media and regional daily press. Facebook rankings use video views and Instagram rankings use Reels views. Each monthly source states its period, inclusion rules, metric and known limitations.

A month is published only after the calendar period closes. View totals can continue to rise after collection, so later readings may differ slightly. Corrections to a source article automatically flow into this hub.
