La Red (literally The Network), is a private television channel in Chile. It began broadcasting on 12 May 1991, as the second private television station in Chile, after Mega.
From 1991 to 2014, the channel operated in facilities adjacent to the Chilefilms complex in Las Condes. In 2014, it opened its own production complex ubicated in Macul, which has three studios.[2]
The channel was owned by several companies, such as TV Azteca[3] and Copesa,[4] before being sold to Mexican businessman Remigio Ángel González. The channel was called Red Television (Network Television) for about ten years until 2009, before being reverted to its original name in 2009. It mainly airs Hollywood blockbusters (especially in primetime). It is also the TV station that broadcast the local version of the popular "Big Brother" and WWE shows like WWE Raw and WWE SmackDown.
In audience share, it currently ranks fifth behind TVN, Canal 13, CHV, and Mega.
