History
China Television was established on September 3, 1968, and began broadcasting in 1969.[1]
On August 9, 1999, the channel was publicly listed on Taiwan Stock Exchange, becoming the first publicly listed broadcasting company on the island.
In 2006, due to effects borne by the media reform law in Taiwan requiring all political parties to divest their control in radio and television companies, 90% of CTV shares were sold to the China Times media group, effectively giving the station leeway to some of its satellite TV concerns, notably the Chung T'ien Television (CTi), one of major cable television programmers in Taiwan. Some CTV shows are now seen on CTi's two channels on cable.
It is currently the largest television channels on the island. Its shows consistently rated 2nd in all major time slots, and is home to Taiwan's most watched early evening newscast, the CTV News Global Report.
Funding allegations
In November 2019,
CTV's parent company, The Want Want China Times Group, denied these allegations.[2] The veracity of his claims has also been disputed by espionage experts, who suggested that his claims were made out of opportunism.[3][4]
