Radio Judaica is a French language Jewish radio station in Belgium.[1][2][3][4] The station is based in Brussels.[5]
History
[edit]The station was created in 1980 as the first European Jewish radio.[6][7] The station was successful and had attracted an audience from the Jewish community for its cultural, political and informational programs.[8]
In 1990, the channel had 30,000 to 50,000 daily listeners, including a number of non-Jews on the outskirts of Brussels, attracted by the quality content offered by the station.[7]
In 2003, the president of the station, Arié Renous, was falsely accused of housing illegal immigrants in his residence.[9] Renous, who was also the founder of the station as well as a Holocaust survivor, died in 2008.[10]
The station celebrated its 40th anniversary in 2020.[11]
Operations and FM
[edit]The station is currently operated by the Cercle ben Gurion initiative.[12]
Radio Judaica currently broadcasts on 90.2 FM (in analog), and 12B (in digital).[13]
