GNT is a Brazilian pay television channel. Originally launched as GNT: Globosat News Television, a news and information network. With the launch of GloboNews, in 1996, the GNT acronym became meaningless, and the channel was focused on documentaries and talk shows. In 2003, the channel was once again repositioned, with increased female-oriented programming, such as successful talk show Saia Justa. However, some original GNT programs remain, such as Manhattan Connection, currently the longest-running original program on Brazilian subscription television, though that program moved to GloboNews in January 2011.

History

GNT was launched in 1991 and was a news channel until the launch of GloboNews in 1996. At launch, the channel broadcast 16 hours a day with news received from international news agencies and networks. Every morning, GNT in this phase broadcast a business news program with indices from the main stock markets. Anchormen were local profissionals and at the top of each hour (similar to the later Em Cima da Hora on GloboNews) a five-minute bulletin was broadcast produced by staff from TV Globo. [1]
