El Hiwar Et Tounsi ("Tunisian Dialogue") is television channel in Tunisia.[1] In March 2015 it was the most widely watched television channel in Tunisia, with a 26.7% market share.[2]

The channel was launched in 2003 by Tahar Ben Hassin, a left-wing émigré in Paris, as an unlicensed satellite station broadcasting political programmes opposed to the Ben Ali regime.[3] After the Tunisian Revolution the channel relocated to the Manouba suburb of Tunis, switching to digital terrestrial broadcast and gradually becoming a mainstream television channel.[4][5][6] In 2014 the founder sold the channel to a group of investors headed by Zamel Fehri and Aziz Jemal.[7]
