Union Radio TV (Channel 4) was officially inaugurated on October 24, 1950, and it started broadcasting uninterruptedly for more than eight hours a day in Havana.
A year later, CMQ Television’s Channel 6 was inaugurated to broadcast regularly, so Cuba, along with Brazil and Mexico, is a pioneer of television in Latin America and the Caribbean.
After the triumph of the Revolution on January 1, 1959, Cuban television acquired a public and educational nature under the guidance of the Cuban Radio and Television Institute.
Several Cuban communication and news media, including Prensa Latina, have sent congratulatory messages on this anniversary.
