History

TV5 is launched as a 24-hour Telugu news channel on 2 October 2007 by Shreya Broadcasting Pvt. Ltd.[2][8] It is promoted by B. R. Naidu (Bollineni Rajagopal Naidu) of Chittoor.[9][10][3][11][12] Naidu previously ran a travel agency. He is also the owner of the hair product company, Nuzen Hair Oil.[4] TV5 is established from the profits of the hair oil business.[13] B. R. Naidu, Bollineni Ravindranath, and Bollineni Surendranath are the board members and directors of the company.[14][4]

The parent company also broadcasts TV5 USA, exclusive to Telugu audiences in the US.[15] In August 2016, TV5 launched a digital entity called TV5 Money, exploiting its business specialization. It was made available as a YouTube channel, mobile app, website, and on IPTV platforms. TV5 Money focuses on real-time financial market coverage, business news, and lifestyle content.[7]

On 29 March 2017, TV5 launched its devotional and spiritual channel, Hindu Dharmam on the occasion of Ugadi festival.[15] As of March 2017, TV5 had around 300 reporters covering the states of Andhra Pradesh and Telangana.[15]

Controversies

Conspiracy theory on Rajasekhara Reddy's death

In January 2010, TV5 broadcast a conspiracy theory by the American journalist Mark Ames in the Russian online tabloid The eXile, on the death of former Andhra Pradesh chief minister, Y. S. Rajasekhara Reddy in a helicopter crash on 2 September 2009, alleging that Ambani brothers of Reliance group of companies orchestrated the death of Reddy.[9][17] TV5 broke the story while Sakshi TV and NTV relayed the report aired by TV5.[18][9]

The report led to massive attacks against the business establishments owned by the two Ambani brothers in Andhra Pradesh.[19][12][20] On 8 January 2010, senior executive editor of TV5, Brahmananda Reddy and input editor, P. Venkata Krishna were arrested by the CID police of Andhra. Criminal cases were also filed against Sakshi TV and NTV.[18][21] Editors Guild of India asked the channels to desist from "irresponsible reporting" and condemned the reporting as sensational and against the principles of journalism.[20] However, various journalists' associations also protested against the arrest of TV5 journalists and called for the immediate release of the arrested duo, and the withdrawal of the cases filed against them.[17]
