TC Televisión is a commercial television network in Ecuador. The network was founded in 1969 and was commercially-funded for many years until 2011 when Grupo Iasaías went into a lawsuit and was sold to a state government unit, Since then the channel has been owned by SERTVSA (Sistema Ecuatoriano de Radio y Televisión) until 2022, when a local court ruled that the Isaías brothers returned all of their assets from the government.[1]
History
In early 1969, RCA had completed equipment shipments worth US$600,000 to Cadena Ecuatoriana de Televisión (CETV) in Guayaquil. The transmitter was atop a mountain peak and relayed its signal over seven further transmitters across the country. CETV was primarily commercial, but had an agreement with the government to produce educational programming.[2] On July 9, 1969, CETV was formally created, its founder being Ismael Pérez Perazo. Shortly afterwards, the station was acquired by La Filantrópica (later Filanbanco).[3]
The organization was divided between two locations, the Azul and El Carmen mountains of Guayaquil, in charge of operations, and the city's center, where the administrative functions were located.[4] The station's relay in Riobamba opened on December 27, 1969, becoming the first television station available there.[5]

Incidents
On January 9, 2024, a group of criminals armed with weapons and explosives took over the channel's newsroom, taking the news program's presenters as hostages while threatening them during a live broadcast, although police later stated that all of the staff were freed and that they had made 13 arrests relating to the incident. The events may have been a response to the escape of José Adolfo Macías Villamar, leader of Los Choneros, an Ecuadorian drug cartel, although it is uncertain whether this is true.[6]
