Encyclopedic overview
JOAX-DTV (channel 4), branded as Nippon Television (NTV) or Nippon TV, is a Japanese television station serving the Kantō region as the flagship station of the Nippon News Network and the Nippon Television Network System. It is owned and operated by the Nippon Television Network Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of the certified broadcasting holding company Nippon Television Holdings.
Nippon Television's studios are in the Shiodome area of Minato, Tokyo, Japan, and its transmitters are in the Tokyo Skytree. Broadcasting on channel four since its inception, it was the first commercial broadcaster in Asia, and broadcasts terrestrially across Japan. Nippon Television is the home of the syndication networks NNN (for news programs) and NNS (for non-news programs). Except for Okinawa Prefecture, these two networks cover the whole of Japan. Nippon Television is one of the "five private broadcasters based in Tokyo".
