The Ethiopian Broadcasting Corporation (EBC; Amharic: ኢትዮጵያ ብሮድካስቲንግ ኮርፖሬሽን, romanized: ītiyop’iya birodikasitīnigi koriporēshini), now rebranded as ETV (stylized in all lowercase), is an Ethiopian government-owned public service broadcaster.[3] It is headquartered in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, and is the country's oldest and largest broadcaster.[4]
EBC was established by order of Emperor Haile Selassie and initially operated by Thomson, a British firm. It is fully owned by the Ethiopian government. Its programming includes news, sport, music and other entertainment. The majority of the programming is broadcast in Amharic, official languages of Ethiopia.[5] Some news segments are broadcast in other languages, such as Oromo, Somali, Tigrinya, Afar, and English.[6]
EBC has entertainment programs like Ethiopian Idol, which features similar content to American talent show American Idol. In recent years, ETV has transmitted a few matches a week from European Football Leagues (Spanish La Liga and English Premier League), plus some international matches. EBC transmits its programmes on 4 satellite stations.
