Television in Vitosium
Television in Vitosium officially began with the sign-on of the nation's first television stations in Diarora and Gatovita in 1952. The first experimental television broadcast began in 1932 in Gatovita, Kingsland, under the call sign of TE2ED. The broadcasts of TE2ED were broadcast in 60 to 150 lines of resolution at 41 MHz. This service closed around 1935.
There was a fear of communicating ideas and opinions that were not Vitosian, to Vitosians - especially the youth. With the exception of radio, television presented an opportunity, for the first time, to reach a very wide audience at the same time. By 1952, a million television sets had been sold in Vitosium. Even though those sets were very expensive at the time, the large majority (9 of 10) of Vitosian households owned a television set by the end of the 1950s.
The Vitosian Broadcasting Corporation (VBC) was the first entity to broadcast television programming within Vitosium, launching in July 1951 in both Diarora and Gatovita. All television stations that signed on in Vitosium were required to be VBC affiliates, as the VBC was the only television network operating in Vitosium at the time.
