Sun News Network
Sun News Network (commonly shortened to Sun News) was an English language Category C news channel in Canada owned by Québecor Média through a partnership between two of its subsidiaries, TVA Group (which maintained 51% majority ownership of the company) and Sun Media Corporation (which held the remaining 49% interest).〔("Quebecor fires warning shot at all-news networks" ), from ''Globe and Mail'', June 15, 2010〕〔(Broadcasting Decision CRTC 2010-882 ), published 11/26/2010〕 The channel was launched on April 18, 2011 in standard and high definition〔 ("Sun News Network rises today," ) from torontosun.com, 4/18/2011〕 and shut down February 13, 2015.〔 It operated under a Category 2 (later classified as Category C) licence granted by the Canadian Radio-Television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) in November 2010,〔("CRTC gives green light to Sun TV," ) from ''The Globe and Mail'', November 26, 2010〕〔("Sun TV’s conservative 24-hour news service gets the green light" ), ''Toronto Star'', November 26, 2010〕 after the network aborted a highly publicized attempt for a Category 1 licence (later classified as Category A) that would have given it mandatory access on digital cable and satellite providers across Canada. Sun News was distributed by most major cable and satellite providers across Canada but was included in channel tiers subscribed by only 40% of all Canadian households (5.1 million homes with a pay television subscription).〔("Sun TV's abandonment of principles is TV comedy gold," ) from ''The Globe and Mail'', 4/27/2013〕 Quebecor had sought wider distribution for Sun News since its launch,〔("Sun News Network launches with anchor as Sunshine Girl," ) from ''The Globe and Mail'', 4/18/2011〕 most notably making an unsuccessful request for mandatory carriage on basic cable and satellite tiers in 2013.〔("Sun News Network’s fate unknown after CRTC rejects bid to be carried on basic cable," ) from ''Toronto Star'', 8/8/2013〕 Sun News was simulcast on CKXT-DT (channel 51), a general entertainment independent television station based in Toronto (with repeaters in Southern and Eastern Ontario) that was branded as "Sun TV" before it began simulcasting Sun News from the network's launch until Quebecor surrendered the CKXT licence in the fall of 2011. The existence of Sun TV prior to Sun News (and the fact a similar on-screen logo was used for the CKXT venture) has resulted in Sun News sometimes being erroneously referred to as "Sun TV". Sun News was known for its provocative content, right-of-centre viewpoints, and frequent controversies, but was plagued primarily by poor viewership: the network reported an average of 8,000 viewers, which was significantly lower than its competitors, CBC News Network, CTV News Channel and Global News Network. Following failed attempts to sell the network to ZoomerMedia (a company owned by veteran Canadian television executive Moses Znaimer) and Leonard Asper, Sun News Network abruptly signed off at February 13, 2015 at 5:00 a.m. ET. ==History==
