'''Telefe''' (acronym for '''Televisión Federal''') is a [[television station]] located in [[Buenos Aires]], [[Argentina]]. The station is owned and operated by [[Paramount Global]] through Televisión Federal S.A.<ref name="viacomcbs" /> Telefe is also one of Argentina's six national [[television networks]]. Its studios are located in [[Martínez, Buenos Aires|Martínez]], Buenos Aires, adjacent to the corporate headquarters;<ref name="headquarters">{{cite news |title=VIACOM INAUGURÓ NUEVO EDIFICIO CORPORATIVO EN BUENOS AIRES |url=https://www.newslinereport.com/negocios/nota/viacom-inauguro-nuevo-edificio-corporativo-en-buenos-aires |access-date=June 30, 2020 |work=Newsline Report |date=April 24, 2019 |language=es}}</ref> its transmitter is located at the [[Alas Building]].<ref name="alas">{{cite news |last1=Cayón |first1=David |title=Telefe comienza a transmitir en digital terrestre |url=https://www.cronista.com/negocios/Telefe-comienza-a-transmitir-en-digital-terrestre-20110318-0014.html |work=[[El Cronista]] |date=March 18, 2011 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110321205320/http://www.cronista.com/negocios/Telefe-comienza-a-transmitir-en-digital-terrestre-20110318-0014.html |archive-date=March 21, 2011 |language=es}}</ref>

In areas of Argentina where a Telefe station is not receivable over-the-air, it is available on satellite and select cable systems. Telefe also has regional stations across the country and an international network ([[Telefe Internacional]]) which is available in the [[Americas]], [[Europe]], [[Asia]], and [[Oceania]].<ref>{{cite news |title=TELEFE INTERNACIONAL AMPLÍA SU COBERTURA A TRAVÉS DE DIRECTV |url=https://www.totalmedios.com/nota/6395/telefe-internacional-amplia-su-cobertura-a-traves-de-directv |work=Total Medios |date=September 3, 2009 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200630215927/https://www.totalmedios.com/nota/6395/telefe-internacional-amplia-su-cobertura-a-traves-de-directv |archive-date=June 30, 2020 |language=es}}</ref>

== History ==
===First years (1957–73)===
The history of Telefe stretches back to 1957, when a group of alumni and lawyers from the Colegio El Salvador led by Fr. Héctor Grandetti, founded the company ''Difusión Contemporánea S.A.'' (Contemporary Broadcasting S.A.). This company, known as '''''DiCon''''' for short, submitted a bid in the licensing of two new television channels in [[Buenos Aires]], one on channel 11 and the other on channel 13. On April 28, 1958, DiCon won the license for channel 11.<ref>{{cite news |title=Legislación y Avisos Oficiales – Decreto Ley 8039/1959 |url=https://www.boletinoficial.gob.ar/detalleAviso/primera/10898853/19590724 |access-date=10 July 2020 |publisher=[[Boletín Oficial de la República Argentina]] |date=24 July 1959 |language=es}}</ref>

Original plans to build the new station in the Colegio El Salvador facilities fell through. Eventually, facilities were secured, and Canal 11 launched from its first headquarters in [[San Cristóbal, Buenos Aires|San Cristóbal]], Buenos Aires. The station finally launched on July 21, 1961, at 8:58&nbsp;p.m. under '''''Teleonce'''''.<ref>{{cite news |last1=Curubeto |first1=Diego |title=Hace 40 años salía al aire "Canal 11", con los jesuitas |url=https://www.ambito.com/espectaculos/hace-40-anos-salia-al-aire-canal-11-los-jesuitas-n3126082 |work=[[Ámbito Financiero]] |date=23 July 2001 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200328154401/https://www.ambito.com/espectaculos/hace-40-anos-salia-al-aire-canal-11-los-jesuitas-n3126082 |archive-date=28 March 2020 |language=es}}</ref>

Financial problems forced the station to seek a backer, which would turn out to be [[American Broadcasting Company|ABC]] from the [[United States]]. ABC and DiCon formed Telerama S.R.L., a group that allowed DiCon to upgrade and expand its studio facilities.<ref>{{cite web |last1=Eliades |first1=Analía G. |title=Historia Legal de la Radio y la Televisión en Argentina |url=http://www.perio.unlp.edu.ar/sites/default/files/eliades-_hist_radioytv.pdf |publisher=Faculty of Journalism and Social Communication, [[University of La Plata]] |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130612100612/http://www.perio.unlp.edu.ar/sites/default/files/eliades-_hist_radioytv.pdf |archive-date=12 June 2013 |language=es}}</ref>

During its first decade, Teleonce aired shows like ''Música en el Aire'', ''Cosa Juzgada'', ''Tato Siempre en Domingo'', ''El Reporter Esso'', ''Radiolandia en TV'', ''Operación Ja Ja'' and ''No Toca Botón''.<ref name="1st-years">{{cite news |title=El canal Telefé festeja hoy sus primeros cuarenta años |url=https://www.clarin.com/sociedad/canal-telefe-festeja-hoy-primeros-cuarenta-anos_0_Hy5xWovgCte.html |work=[[Clarín (Argentine newspaper)|Clarín]] |date=21 July 2001 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200710221337/https://www.clarin.com/sociedad/canal-telefe-festeja-hoy-primeros-cuarenta-anos_0_Hy5xWovgCte.html |archive-date=10 July 2020 |language=es}}</ref>

Through the 1960s, the family-oriented programming of the channel could not compete successfully against [[El Nueve|Canal 9]] and did not have great financial backing like [[El Trece|Canal 13]]. On October 17, 1970, businessman Héctor Ricardo García took over the station and changed the profile of the station, for an audience betting on news and more popular programming, adopting the slogan "''El canal de las noticias''" ("The News Channel"). Under García, Teleonce would climb to the top of the Argentine television ratings.<ref name="1st-years" /><ref>{{cite news |title=Telefé cumplió 45 años |url=http://www.laprensa.com.ar/302681-Telefe-cumplio-45-anos.note.aspx |work=[[La Prensa (Buenos Aires)|La Prensa]] |date=22 July 2006 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160603165418/http://www.laprensa.com.ar/302681-Telefe-cumplio-45-anos.note.aspx |archive-date=3 June 2016 |language=es}}</ref>

===State-run era (1974–88)===
After the licenses expired on October 8, 1973, changes began as the government took control of the news departments of channels 9, 11 and 13. Jorge Conti was named administrator and took over hosting duties for the newscast and other programs.<ref>{{cite news |title=Legislación y Avisos Oficiales – Decreto Ley 1761/1973 |url=https://www.boletinoficial.gob.ar/detalleAviso/primera/7059818/19731016 |access-date=10 July 2020 |publisher=[[Boletín Oficial de la República Argentina]] |date=16 October 1973 |language=es}}</ref> This was followed on September 26, 1974, with the expropriation of the three networks making Conti the administrator again.<ref>{{cite news |title=Legislación y Avisos Oficiales – Decreto Ley 919/1974 |url=https://www.boletinoficial.gob.ar/detalleAviso/primera/7063387/19741003 |access-date=10 July 2020 |publisher=[[Boletín Oficial de la República Argentina]] |date=16 October 1973 |language=es}}</ref><ref>{{cite news |title=Aquel intento de modificar la realidad eliminando programas de televisión |url=https://www.clarin.com/ediciones-anteriores/intento-modificar-realidad-eliminando-programas-television_0_BkLlbad0TFl.html |work=Clarín |date=13 September 2009 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170820201659/https://www.clarin.com/ediciones-anteriores/intento-modificar-realidad-eliminando-programas-television_0_BkLlbad0TFl.html |archive-date=20 August 2017 |language=es}}</ref> This continued under the military dictatorship of the [[National Reorganization Process]], with the [[Argentine Air Force]] co-administering the channel with Conti, who remained lead newsreader, and the channel was renamed as '''''Canal Once'''''.<ref>{{cite news |last1=Blejman |first1=Mariano |title=La noticia rebelde |url=https://www.pagina12.com.ar/diario/suplementos/radar/9-130-2002-03-24.html |work=[[Página/12]] |date=24 March 2002 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090525161658/http://www.pagina12.com.ar/diario/suplementos/radar/9-130-2002-03-24.html |archive-date=25 May 2009 |language=es}}</ref><ref>{{cite news |title=Los canales de la década del 60 |url=http://www.eldia.com/edis/20111017/los-canales-decada-del-espectaculos18.htm |work=[[El Día (La Plata)|El Día]] |date=17 October 2011 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180614172924/https://www.eldia.com/edis/20111017/los-canales-decada-del-espectaculos18.htm |archive-date=14 June 2018 |language=es}}</ref>

In 1979, with the arrival of colour television looming and facilities upgrades needed to allow colour recording and broadcasting, the state bought the Canal Once plant from García, who had continued to own it, thus becoming a 100 percent nationally owned network.

The 1980s started with the introduction of colour telecasts on May 6, 1981, but the decade would become turbulent in the legal system. Twice under the dictatorship, a request for bids was issued. On August 19, 1982, the first one received no offers; the second, on October 25, 1983, would result in Canal Once being handed back to García. When [[Raúl Alfonsín]] became President of Argentina, among his first acts in office, was to nullify the transfer of Canal Once to García, leaving it in the hands of the state for another six years.

===Privatization (1989–98)===
As the 1980s began to close, financial problems and hyperinflation brought Canal Once to its breaking point. The energy crisis that helped bring down Alfonsín's presidency had forced massive cuts in broadcast hours in Buenos Aires; with the ability to broadcast only four, later eight, and ultimately ten, hours a day, and amidst the already rough economic backdrop, Canal Once teetered on the brink of bankruptcy. The closure of the station was being batted around at this time. However, salvation came when [[Carlos Menem]] announced that he would seek bids to privatize two of the state's three remaining Buenos Aires stations, Canal Once and Canal 13.<ref>{{cite news |last1=D'Espósito |first1=Leonardo M. |title=Sesenta años de la TV argentina: del vivo y directo a la vida en directo |url=https://www.baenegocios.com/diario/2011/10/17/2575-sesenta-anos-de-la-tv-argentina-del-vivo-y-directo-a-la-vida-en-directo.html |work=Diario BAE |date=17 October 2011 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20111019221402/http://www.diariobae.com/diario/2011/10/17/2575-sesenta-anos-de-la-tv-argentina-del-vivo-y-directo-a-la-vida-en-directo.html |archive-date=19 October 2011 |language=es}}</ref> One of the groups participating in this bidding process was Televisión Federal S.A., a group whose stakeholders were headlined by [[Editorial Atlántida]] as a group of privately owned television stations from across the country.<ref>{{cite news |last1=López |first1=Gustavo |title=El caso Telefónica |url=https://opinion.infobae.com/gustavo-lopez/2012/11/21/el-caso-telefonica/ |work=[[Infobae]] |date=21 November 2012 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20121128051858/http://opinion.infobae.com/gustavo-lopez/2012/11/21/el-caso-telefonica |archive-date=28 November 2012 |language=es}}</ref>

[[File:Viejo-telefe01.gif|150px|thumb|right|Telefe's arrival into the 1990s was signalled with the debut of its iconic RGB circles logo with the station name in white in them.]]

In December 1989, Arte Radiotelevisivo Argentino S.A. ([[Artear]]), a subsidiary of [[Grupo Clarín]], won the bidding for Canal Once and Canal 13. Artear chose the latter, and Televisión Federal took control of Canal Once as principal owners effective January 15, 1990. After 16 years of state management, the station was back in the hands of the private sector, and after a decade of branding as Canal Once, the new branding of '''''Telefe''''', an acronym of the new ownership's name, debuted on March 5 the same year. During the first weeks of the relaunched channel, the ''Telefe'' brand mirrored the blue and white of the [[Flag of Argentina]] (blue name on a white screen). That logo was later replaced by the three-circles logo used till the present.<ref>{{cite news|title=¡Se cumplen 30 años de nuestra primera transmisión! |url=https://telefe.com/entretenimientos/espectaculos/se-cumplen-30-anos-de-nuestra-primera-transmision/|work=Telefe.com|date=5 March 2020|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200711025817/https://telefe.com/entretenimientos/espectaculos/se-cumplen-30-anos-de-nuestra-primera-transmision/|archive-date=11 July 2020|language=es}}</ref>

===Telefónica era (1999–2016)===
In 1999, [[Telefónica]] acquired ownership of Telefe and its eight owned-and-operated stations; that same year, Telefe launched an international signal aimed at viewers outside of Argentina. It also retained Telefe over [[Canal 9 (Argentina)|Azul Televisión]] when it bought the latter in 2002. The Federal Broadcasting Committee (COMFER in Spanish) later forced Telefónica to sell off its involvement in Azul Televisión.<ref>{{cite news |title=Telefónica avanza en el control de Atlántida |url=https://www.lanacion.com.ar/sociedad/telefonica-avanza-en-el-control-de-atlantida-nid163271/ |access-date=11 July 2020 |work=[[La Nación]] |date=1 December 1999 |language=es}}</ref><ref>{{cite news |title=Telefónica deberá vender canales de TV |url=https://www.clarin.com/sociedad/telefonica-debera-vender-canales-tv_0_ByCbbOLx0Ye.html |work=Clarín |date=29 November 2001 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20191208144508/https://www.clarin.com/sociedad/telefonica-debera-vender-canales-tv_0_ByCbbOLx0Ye.html |archive-date=8 December 2019 |language=es}}</ref>

With Gustavo Yankelevich (and after 1999, Claudio Villaruel) directing the channel's output, and with the introduction of satellite broadcasts nationwide, Telefe took to an unprecedented 20-year streak atop the Argentina ratings. It logged ratings wins in every year between 1990 and 2009, acquiring the rights to ''[[The Simpsons]]'', Formula 1 racing and the franchise for ''[[Big Brother (TV series)|Big Brother]]''.

In 2010 and 2011, under the direction of Marisa Badía, Telefe lost its number one position in the ratings — which had not happened since just after the privatization of the station — to then-perennial runner-up [[El Trece]]. In 2012, however, another change in management, this time to Gustavo Yankelevich's son Tomás, and shows like ''[[Graduados]]'', ''[[Dulce amor]]'' and ''Pekín Express'' helped Telefe return to the top of the rating list.

===Acquisition by Viacom (2016–present)===
On November 3, 2016, it was reported that [[Viacom (2005–2019)|Viacom]] had won a bid to acquire Telefe.<ref name="bloomberg-viacom">{{cite news|title=Viacom to Buy Telefonica's Telefe for About $400 Million|url=https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2016-11-03/viacom-said-to-buy-telefonica-s-telefe-for-about-400-million|website=Bloomberg|date=November 3, 2016 |access-date=3 November 2016}}</ref> It also made Telefe a sister to [[Channel 5 (British TV channel)|Channel 5]] in the United Kingdom.

In December 2019, Viacom re-merged with [[CBS Corporation]], forming [[Paramount Global|ViacomCBS]] (currently known as Paramount Global) and making Telefe a sister to [[CBS]] in the United States, and [[Network 10]] in Australia.<ref name="ViacomCBSOfficialPDF">{{Cite web|url=https://www.cbscorporation.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/ViacomCBS-Press-Release-FINAL.pdf|title=CBS and Viacom To Combine|work=CBS|date=12 August 2019|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190813190148/https://www.cbscorporation.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/ViacomCBS-Press-Release-FINAL.pdf|archive-date=13 August 2019|url-status=dead}}</ref>

In June 2025, Paramount announced its intention to sell the network by the end of that year. Candidates included Alpha Media, Marcos Galperín, Grupo Werthein and former Telefe artistic director Gustavo Yankelevich.<ref>{{cite news |title=Se vende Telefe: los compradores que podrían quedarse con el canal líder de Argentina |url=https://www.losandes.com.ar/economia/se-vende-telefe-los-compradores-que-podrian-quedarse-el-canal-lider-argentina-n5951051 |work=[[Los Andes (Argentine newspaper)|Los Andes]] |language=es}}</ref>

The network currently has four [[owned-and-operated stations]] and current affiliation agreements with other television stations.

===Owned and operated===
All of the owned-and-operated stations (except [[Channel 8 (Tucumán, Argentina)|LRK458 TV]]) joined Telefe in April 1998, after Editorial Atlántida acquired a majority stake of the former Televisoras Provinciales.<ref>{{cite news |title=EDITORIAL ATLANTIDA ACQUIRES TV CHANNELS |url=https://www.telecompaper.com/news/editorial-atlantida-acquires-tv-channels-2--148178 |work=Telecom Paper |date=September 14, 1998 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20141214140310/https://www.telecompaper.com/news/editorial-atlantida-acquires-tv-channels-2--148178 |archive-date=December 14, 2014}}</ref> LRK458 TV (later known as ''Telefe Tucumán'' and now known as ''Elocho TV'') was the last to join Telefe in March 2000.<ref>{{cite news |title=Telefé adquirió Canal 8 de Tucumán |url=https://www.lanacion.com.ar/sociedad/telefe-adquirio-canal-8-de-tucuman-nid10634/ |work=[[La Nación]] |date=March 27, 2000 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200701014120/https://www.lanacion.com.ar/sociedad/telefe-adquirio-canal-8-de-tucuman-nid10634/ |archive-date=July 1, 2020 |language=es}}</ref>
