First Nations Broadcasting Australia (officially known as First Nations Broadcasting Australia Ltd and formerly Aboriginal Broadcasting Australia) is an Australian television and radio network, based in Darwin.[1] The network was founded by Indigenous Australian Donna Odegaard.[citation needed]
The network currently broadcasts eight different television channels, including four radio simulcasts.[2]
History and programming
[edit]First Nations Broadcasting currently airs four open narrowcast stations. They are First Nations TV (stylised as FiRST NATiONS TV), Darwin TV, First Nations Tourism TV (stylised as FiRST NATiONS TOURiSM TV) and Business TV.[3][4]
Business TV replaced Education TV around 2023, while TVNT went off-air around the same time.[3]
The broadcaster also has four radio stations—First Nations Radio, Darwin FM, First Nations Radio National and Palmerston FM88—which are all simulcast on television.[5]
The stations air a mix of locally produced content, with some programming tailored to Indigenous Australians.[6]
