- Iv 7y agohttps://www.afp.com/en https://www.afp.com/en Agence France Presse is a bit of an oddity in terms of structure. Legally a corporation, it has no shareholders and is forbidden by its bylaws to receive public subventions. It mostly sell news feeds to other medias. You may be surprised by the clear design and the absence of ads. It is managed by an assembly of 18 people, mostly representatives from local medias (who are all biased in different ways) and 3 members sent by the government. Its finances are managed by specialized magistrates. In my opinion it is a great model organization of private-public collaboration and an example of correctly set incentives for a good neutral news agency.
