iNews, short for Indonesia News, formerly named SUN TV and Sindo TV, is an Indonesian free-to-air television broadcaster founded by Media Nusantara Citra, a subsidiary of MNC Asia Holding. It broadcasts 24 hours a day and 7 days a week.

History

[edit]

iNews (stand for Indonesia News) was originally launched on March 5, 2008, as SUN TV, a subscription channel. In 2009 it obtained a television license from the government to start broadcasting as a free-to-air channel on terrestrial television in Jakarta, Bogor, Depok, Tangerang, and Bekasi. The channel was launched as TV3 in those cities and aired commercials. In 2011, TV3 stopped carrying SUN TV and was acquired by CTV Banten. On September 26, 2011, SUN TV changed its name to Sindo TV which was part of the synergy of Sindo Media with Sindo Trijaya FM and SINDOnews.com. On September 23, 2014 the Minister of Communication and Information Republic of Indonesia granted a network station permit for Sindo TV and was broadcasting once again in Jakarta, Bogor, Depok, Tangerang, and Bekasi with different programming. Then on December 15, 2014, Sindo TV was officially launched as national television in the Luar Biasa! Soft Launching event.[clarification needed][1][2]

Sindo TV was renamed iNews TV after the iNewsmaker Awards held on April 6, 2015.[3] In addition, the local televisions under this television network lost its identity and also changed its name to "iNews TV". For East Kalimantan, Kaltim TV was renamed "iNews Tenggarong" in 2019, and it was relaunched on the digital terrestrial television frequency and instead affiliated with Ajwa TV in 2022.[clarification needed] On October 31, 2017, its name was changed to iNews, coinciding with the launching of the new name for news programmes that aired on RCTI (Seputar iNews), MNCTV (Lintas iNews), and GTV (Buletin iNews) at the Indonesia Awards.[4]

While iNews is still clear at Telkom-4 at 108.0°,[clarification needed] Conax encryption is used, replacing BISS for selected programs due to copyright protection in all sports programming since 2019 as the MNC Media other three television networks broadcasts are encrypted due to being exclusively contained for free-to-air terrestrial and certain pay television providers in Indonesia such as MNC Vision, MNC Play, K-Vision, Transvision, IndiHome, First Media, and Nex Parabola.
