Telefé Rosario

Canal 5 was the first channel in the city of Rosario to produce local content. When the TV channel began to operate, in 1964, Rosario locals could only watch shows aired by Canal 7 from Buenos Aires. Like many other channels in the interior of Argentina, Canal 5 repeated shows broadcasted by channels in Buenos Aires (9, 11 and 2) and focused most of its own production on live information content.

Just like Canal 8 from Córdoba, it was part of the TV business network that bought Canal 11 from Buenos Aires in 1989 and became part of a nine-channel network across the country. In 1999 the Spanish company Telefónica purchased the network. In 2016, it passed into American hands with of Telefé’s sale to Viacom.

It currently shares many executives with Canal 13 from Santa Fe, located less than 200 km away. Most of its programming retransmits that of Telefé Buenos Aires, though it features a strong local news production (three daily shows).
