Media Dordogne

Famosa means "famous, reputed" in Occitan and has been winking at women who dare since 2013, and it's still here in a complicated context for the print media. The title has become part of a local press group and continues to honor women linked to the Périgord, whether from here or elsewhere, famous or anonymous. The magazine follows them in their associative, sporting, cultural, business, social and historical lives. This bimonthly is available in the Dordogne, and by subscription.

It is a weekly newspaper that remains anchored in the agricultural and rural world, but has opened up more widely to the local economy, particularly the craft industry. The editorial staff also deals with departmental information with special pages for the Bergeracois, the Périgord Vert, the Périgord Noir and the Vallée de l'Isle. The newspaper extends its sections to culture, gastronomy and regional books, with a final magazine page. The publishing company, SERP, also publishes a summer magazine, Chemins de traverse. You will also find legal notices.

The subjects covered are as varied as its team. It is also a newspaper authorized to publish legal notices. Published on Fridays.

This international, national, regional, departmental and local news daily represents more than one million readers in 8 departments.

An associative radio station that presents itself as a radio accomplice.

Publisher Fanlac is an 80-year-old Périgord institution. Long based in Périgueux, it has chosen to return to its stronghold in Périgord Noir. Alice, the third generation to take over the reins, has had her work cut out negotiating the modernity of this publishing house with its strong regional roots. This has now been achieved, with a rejuvenated editorial line and detective fiction (Ab intestat and Springsteen-sur-Seine) and children's fiction (La tour penchée de la Vermondie) collections that are on a roll. Discover their books in bookshops throughout the Dordogne.
