This case study is geared towards giving importance to interactions occurring between two different discursive spheres in the construction process of the European proximity applied to local issues. On one hand, we have the gradual beginning ofEuradion@ntes in relation to the communication policy of the European Commission and in relation to the “European city” policy lead by the city of Nantes. On the other hand, we will pay attention to the enunciatively scheme of a “European nearness journalism” wondering about this self-proclaimed nomi­na­tion as a new journalistic category, and wondering about radio programs as a local mise-en-scene of a society of European people. We will end the analysis by studying interns of journa­lism, local journalists of the “European nearness journalism”. Alleged at standing for an ad hoc European microcosm, the creation of this primary European group is part of the production of information itself. Therefore, we are exposing the symbolic dimension of public policies, construction of media-related-nearness, as well as the professional journalistic identity.
