Oko Broadcasting Corporation, also known as OBC, is the main Makko Oko public broadcasting company headquartered in Opposh.
History
OBC got its start when the Empire Of Makko Oko was originally incepted, right after the Civil Transition War. Many news publications had feared reporting on anything after the war went into the revolution's favor, so the government took over and created OMONN, the first, and only, news publication available in the nation, and it continued to stay that way for years. Sometime around 2021 to 2022, the government, being established after a couple of years, and officially recognized as the legitimate government internationally, set out to allow some private businesses, deeming the allowed ones, state authorized, but not all of them were allowed.
Originally, the government didn't want to sink its costs into state-run programming outside of news publications, and so OMONN continued to be for news exclusively, with state-authorized private companies handling all the other channels. International channels weren't considered for broadcast very much, and very rarely did they actually end up getting approved by the government.
The Present
July 22nd, 2022, is when the government's position on state-run programming changed. With the realization that physical news media such as newspapers were harder to censor and control, and even harder to know what was said on it until after it was already published and distributed, the Industry & Securities Oversight Commission, in coordination with Emperor Conall Solis and the Ministry Of Land Integrity, a national ban on physical news media was instated, and with that, OMONN's official transition into its current state, the OBC.
The ban itself, which killed off most of what OMONN was originally created for, at least partially, which was during a time when the internet infrastructure was poor, not even reaching 34% of the nation's people, caused the government to rethink its original stance on state-run programming, and ended up converting OMONN into the OBC in a mass expansion of state-run mass media.
