| National Indigenous Television, funded by the Commonwealth of Australia, is produced in Sydney and broadcast via Imparja Television's existing satellite capacity. The idea for a national, indigenous television service was initially conceived by the National Indigenous Radio Service (the peak Indigenous radio group), which initially lobbied the government to start a new, nationwide indigenous television network. Although no major political party championed this cause, commercial broadcaster Imparja Television stated in 2004 that it would run such a network, at least within its own license area.[2] In 2005 the federal Department of Communications, Information Technology and the Arts considered funding such a station, and conducted a review process. On 13 July 2007 NITV launched, replacing Indigenous Community Television on the Optus Aurora remote satellite service.[3] forumlinkbuilding companyfree website hits | |
