TV1 (Portugal)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
TV1 - Rede Independente, also simply known as TV1, was a proposed plan for a Portuguese private television channel, as one of the three bids for one of the two networks. Owned by Daniel Proença de Carvalho, it was thrown out in February 1992.
Former RTP director Proença de Carvalho submitted his bid for a private television channel, TV1, in April 1991.[1] In case it would win the tender, the channel would deposit 30% of its capital.[2]
TV1 presented its schedule on 15 May 1991. 56% of the output was to be produced in Portugal, with support from independent production companies.[3] As of July, it had received eight million contos in funding: TVI had six million and SIC, twelve million.[4] The network had an ambitious project, such as a high number of broadcast hours per day, aiming at a mass market.[5]
On 6 February 1992, the licenses were given to SIC and TVI, putting TV1 out. Proença de Carvalho criticized the winners due to political interference, but remained neutral in the defeat.[6]
