TV Diário (channel 19) is a Brazilian television station based in Mogi das Cruzes, a city in the state of São Paulo, serving as an affiliate of TV Globo for the Alto Tietê Region. It is owned by locally based Grupo Diário de Mogi, also responsible for the newspaper O Diário de Mogi, a company of the San Biagio family as its sole broadcasting property and its coverage covers 10 municipalities in the São Paulo metropolitan region. Its studios are located in the César de Sousa district and its transmission antenna is at the top of the Serra do Itapeti.
The owners of the newspaper O Diário de Mogi won the concession granted by the Ministry of Communications. The station's concession followed the new rules of minimum hours for local programming established in the bidding notices, and had a greater number of local/regional programs than the other Rede Globo affiliates in the state of São Paulo, and even the affiliates spread throughout Brazil.[1]
The station went on air on May 1, 2000, through UHF channel 14 (later in the same year moving to channel 38), replacing the Rede Globo São Paulo retransmitters in the Alto Tietê region.[1] At the time, the population was 1.2 million inhabitants, concentrated in cities such as Suzano (where a unit with a studio and a permanent journalism team was set up), Itaquaquecetuba, Ferraz de Vasconcelos and Poá. There are 1.6 million potential viewers, 539 thousand households with TV and a CPI of 0.824%.[1]
On May 15, 2008, exactly 15 days after the station's 8th anniversary, reporter Edson Ferraz suffered a gunshot attack on the street in the Rodeio neighborhood, in the César de Sousa district, in Mogi das Cruzes. The reporter was returning alone from the capital of São Paulo when a car surrounded the broadcaster's vehicle and fired two shots at the professional, who escaped without injury. The police's suspicion is that the attack is a reprisal for the report that Edson Ferraz made for SPTV in the Capital, about the complaint that the State Public Prosecutor's Office made against 13 investigators from Garra de Mogi das Cruzes, suspected of involvement in a bribery scheme of illegal businesses such as car dismantling, gambling houses and prostitution in the city and in Suzano.[2]
In 2013, the station's branch was opened in the city of Suzano. With its own commercial and journalism team, as well as a studio for presenting local newspapers, TV Diário's presence in the city and throughout the region was further intensified.[3]
