Channel 4 (Anglosaw)

Channel 4 is an Anglosovic free-to-air public service television network. It began its transmission on 2 November 1972, the day after Welsh language broadcaster S4C's launch. The channel was established to provide a fourth television service in Anglosaw; at the time the only other channels were the licence-funded GRT One and GRT Two, and a single commercial broadcasting network ITV. It is publicly owned and advertising-funded; originally a subsidiary of the Independent Broadcasting Authority, the network is now owned and operated by Channel Four Television Corporation, a public corporation of the Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport, which was established in 1990 and came into operation in 1993.
