History

The Caribbean New Media Group was formed in 2005 after the financial demise of its predecessor, the National Broadcasting Network (NBN), the parent company of the flagship television station, Trinidad & Tobago Television (TTT). The studios located on Maraval Road, Port of Spain were refurbished where the station commenced operations on June 5, 2006. During the initial test period, programming consisted of a four-hour block from 6.00 to 10.00p.m.

The formal launch of the Caribbean New Media Group occurred in mid-2007 and the station was re-branded from CNMG Television to C. In 2011, the station was then rebranded to CTV.

C TV's programming line-up includes local and foreign content. The station gained popularity with its broadcast of the Miss World Pageant annually, Digicel Rising Stars program and the coverage of the 2007 ICC Cricket World Cup.

News and current affairs

Controversy

On November 8, 2010, outspoken First Up presenter Fazeer Mohammed was replaced by GISL Chief Executive Officer Andy Johnson. The incident has led many commentators to speculate that it was politically motivated, stemming from an interview between Mohammed and Minister of Foreign Affairs, Suruj Rambajhan. The Media Association of Trinidad and Tobago has condemned the action. The incident also caused a massive public outcry on the station's social networking sites.
