French-language specialty channel RDS (Le Réseau des Sports) and diginet RIS Info-Sports have joined BBM as portable people meter members.
Inaugurated in 1989, RDS has been a diary broadcast member since 1990. Its programming is available to all cable households in Quebec as well as some other selected markets – a potential audience of almost six million francophones. RIS hit the airwaves in October and focuses on French-language sports news. Both nets are owned by Bell Globemedia.
