History

The BRF was created on June 5, 1927 through the merger of the previous broadcasting corporations Rundfunksender Süd, Laitstadt Radio AG and Radio Limthal. When established, BRF was East Besmenia's first nationwide radio network.

Until 1939, the BRF focused exclusively on radio. After BRF was involved in the development of television in East Besmenia in the late 1930s, television operations began on Besmenian ground under the name BRF Fernsehen on August 1st, 1939. BRF Television was the only television program in East Besmenia for over 20 years. Only with the start of BRF ZWEI in 1960 was a second television program created in East Besmenia.

Divisions

Regional state studios

The five regional state studios of the BRF.

Since 1975, the BRF operates five regional state studios, which organize radio and television for several Besmenian states. The five state studios operate their own television programs for their federal states as well as radio programs for each federal state individually. The regional broadcasting stations also co-produce some television productions for the nationwide BRF TV channels. The state studios also play a role in national news and magazine broadcasts. For the HIL, contributions from the respective federal state are usually delivered completely (i.e. completely edited) from the regional state studio to the BRF headquarters in Laitstadt. In addition to their headquarters, the state studios have some branch offices in their broadcasting area, which are primarily involved in the production of the radio programs of the federal states or in reporting.
