In this article, we describe FrNewsLink, a corpus allowing to address several applicative tasks that we make publicly available. It gathers several resources from TV Broadcast News (TVBN) shows and press articles such as automatic transcription of TVBN shows, text extracted from on-line press articles, manual annotations for topic segmentation of TVBN shows and linking information between topic segments and press articles. The FrNewsLink corpus is based on 112 (TVBN) shows recorded during two periods in 2014 and 2015. Concomitantly, a set of 24,7k press articles has been gathered. Beyond topic segmentation, this corpus allows to study semantic similarity and multimedia News linking.
