Canal Nou (or simply Nou since 9 October, 2013 until its closing date) was a Spanish TV channel, more precisely the first Valencian TV channel with headquarter in Burjasot. The regular broadcasting started on October 9, 1989 by the hand of Diego Braguinsky. This channel was owned by the public institution Radiotelevisió Valenciana. On 5 November, 2013 Generalidad Valenciana (Spanish autonomous community) announced the closure of the public institution due to 1 200 000 EUR debt, failing into the outplacement of fired workers of an illegal labour force adjustment plan. Consequently, this led to the dismissal of Canal Nou. The law that would allow this to happen was passed on 27 November. Two days after, on 29 November at midnight, the National Police Corps and the liquidators designated by the Council of Generalidad Valenciana took up the Programme Centre in Burjasot in order to switch off the entire airing. Nevertheless, the company has not been liquidated yet, since the liquidators were quitting one by one unable to achieve the permanent closure of the company.

On 9 March 2016, the Corts Valencianes (Valencian Parliament) passed a law in order to create a new radio and TV public institution named Valencian Media Corporation.

Broadcast
The channel was broadcasting for the first time on 9 October (the Valencian Community Day) in 1989. The signal could be reached all over the Valencian Community and also in some areas of Province of Tarragona, Balearic Islands, Murcia, the east of Castilla-La Mancha, and other areas surrounding Teruel. In Catalonia, Castilla-La Mancha and Aragón the signal was picked up due to a natural phenomenon of wave propagation, without the need of placing any specific relays on these lands, however some relays were put on villages and cities close to the geographical borders of the Valencian Community, so the signal could be easily propagated. The Ultra High Frequencies were reaching El Vendrell town in Catalonia and other regions such as Teruel (Aragón) and ALbacete (Castilla-La Mancha).

Starting 11 August 2008, Canal Nou broadcast television signals were found by the DTTV in Catalonia, even though is was broadcasting on TTVi frequency (International Valencian Television, a TV channel (called Nou International) providing the same content) because of emission allowance reasons. This was made possible thanks to the reciprocal process of digital signal between the Valencian (TVV) and Catalonian (TVC) TV and Radio public institutions. In 2010, the broadcast through TTVi frequency was no longer available to reach by the DTTV in Catalonia.

On the follow-up graphic, the ratings of the International Valencian Televison (Nou International) broadcasting in Catalonia are presented:

After the analogue switch-off in 2010, Nou International stopped being aired in these regions as well as in the regions where the signal was reaching by natural phenomenon, the only broadcast being in Valencian Community.

Last audience ratings
This table collects the monthly average audience in its last years of existence, precisely since 2007:

Programming
The newscast were divided in three editions of Notícies Nou (in English Nou News) and the morning show Bon dia Comunitat Valenciana.

It also broadcast Check-in hotel, a comedy-sketch that reached the 30% of audience share in the Valencian Community. The most audience data and audience share were produced during the emission of Tómbola.

However, these emissions were broadcast later by Nou 24 (previously Canal Nou Dos) or half of the event in Nou Televisió and the other half in Nou 24.

Canal Nou International
Canal Nou International was an online television channel from Radiotelevisió Valenciana created to approach and promote the Valencian Community to the Valencian people who live abroad.

The aim of Canal Nou Internacional was to spread information about the Valencian Community to promote culture, history, tourist and entertainment offering, geography, economy, social structures, sport, environment, audiovisual industry and any other area of interest in Spain and the rest of the world.

Canal Nou Internacional was also the Radiotelevisió Valenciana's platform to create, develope, distribute and internationally commercialize audiovisual quality production (programmes, formats and new technology) through its web site, where it was live broadcast. Until Friday 16 July 2010, it broadcast through distributors, cable operators, satellite, broadband, telephony and any other Spanish or international technological platform.

The channel stopped broadcasting in February 2011, also on the Internet.

Headquarters and equipment
The headquarter of Radiotelevisió Valenciana and the Centre of Programmes Production of Nou Televisió are founded on an area in the municipiality of Burjasot, at the outskirts of the city of Valencia, next to Ademuz's motorway. There is another Centre of Production in Alicante placed in a building in the city centre.

On a 30.000 m² plot, the facilities fill around 15.000 m². The building consists of three studios, the biggest one has a surface of 800 m² and seats for 200 people. The two remain sets are 400 and 200 m². The three spaces have a microprocessor controlled lighting system with lighting memory depending on the programme.

Canal Nou had four mobile units, the two largest with capacity for 8 and 12 cameras, and the other two were integrated in Mercedes-Benz vehicles. These units equipped with audio, video and high-tech electronic equipment were prepared for any sport broadcast or big event. The two remain mobile units were more lightweight and were used for short TV reports and could carry up to three cameras. In the last place, it must be added to all these units a mobile connection endowment that sent the signal to the Centre of Production for live broadcast.

Controversies
This channel was severely criticised by the lack of objectivity and political manipulation in favour of Partido Popular (PP). This made Síndic de Greuges (Valencian Community Ombudsman) to warn Canal Nou in order to take necessary measures to guarantee the compliance of the principles of objectivity, veracity, impartiality and respect to political pluralism. Nevertheless, the RTVV CEO strongly denied such critics.

Moreover, this TV channel was involved in the Gürtel Case, a corruption scandal, due to irregular employment contracts for Pope's visit to Valencia, according to reports of the Judicial Assistance Unit. Pedro García, the RTVV CEO at that time, who was supposedly given some gifts, resigned from his position for "personal reasons" a few months later after being disclosed what happened.

Canal Nou was also critizised by CCOO (Workers Commission) for its programming in Spanish, which reached 58% in January 2010, according to a report made by CCOO.

The RTVV committee enterprise itself admitted and denounced on 22 February 2012 in a public release the severe media manipulation to which the information of its podcasts was constantly submitted. 16 days later, this committee participated actively in a mass demonstration (more than 290.000 people) and Xelo Miralles, its news anchor, read the final release.

LOGO

Nou Televisió initial logo was inspired in the old radio microphones, but in October 2005 was redesigned along with Punt 2 logo (old Radiotelevisió Valenciana TV channel).

The existing emblem until October 2013 was similar to the one from Canal 9 Mexico (known as Gala TV). That same month, the channel dramatically changed its logo. This new logo replaced the number 9 with the letters NOU, made by triangles and the red colour cleared the way to an aguamarine, that was used to reflect ″a new era″ based on a ″clear commitment for transparency, political pluralism and willingness of public service.″

REOPENING

After the closure of Canal 9, several demonstrations have been held in support of the reopening of the public entity. On 16 November 2014, a citizen's initiative demanding the RTVV reopening was admitted to process. Alberto Fabra, president of Corts Valencianes (Valencian Parliament) affirmed that he was in favour of the reopening and ″if the circumstances change, we can discuss a new TV″ always provided that is ″start from scratch″ and ″once the channel disappears and necessary conditions must exist.″

On 24 May 2015, once held the elections to Cortes Valencianas and formed a new government by PSPV and Compromís, the executive promised to reopen RTVV and a High Commission was created for this purpose. The date of its reopening is yet unknown due to the judicial problems caused by the closure and the debt resulting from the actions that RTVV was involved in. Even though the will of the new government was to open the new public TV on 9 October 2015, coinciding with the Day of Valencian Community, this date is defined by the executive itself as ″too optimistic″, due to the great complexity of the problem and the lack of agreements between the Commission and the Work Council.

The new Valencian Community government presided by Ximo Puig sets 9 October 2017 as a possible day of the reopening, the Day of Valencian Community. The new entity will be called Valencian Media Corporation.

On 22 December 2015 the law that abolished the closure of Canal 9 was passed, counting with the votes from PSPV, Compromís and Podemos and the abstention of Partido Popular and Ciudadanos.

With regard to debt of more than billion euros accumulated by the public entity, Partido Popular considers that it should be not investigated.
