Al Aoula
Al Aoula, formerly called TVM, is the first Moroccan public television channel. It is a part of the state-owned SNRT Group along with Arryadia, Athaqafia, Al Maghribia, Assadissa, Aflam TV, Tamazight TV and Laayoune TV. The network broadcasts programming in Arabic, Berber, French and Spanish. Its headquarters are situated in Rabat.
Launched in 1962, Al Aoula was the first television network to produce and transmit its own programmes in the country. In 1962 it began colour broadcasts. It had a monopoly on television audience until 1993, when SNRT allowed the creation of private channels. Despite the broadening of television offerings, Al Aoula remains popular amongst locals.
