Mediatele

Mediatele was an ester alternative to Mediaset, launched in 1980 in France, Germany and Russia.

History
Launched on March 3, 1980, Mediatele only had to broadcast channels that were encrypted or not found by the television.

For example: if Tele 5 was encrypted in Germany or the TV did not find it, Mediatele reproposed the broadcaster’s programs on its own channels.

Closure
On 13 February 2005, Mediatele closed its doors because the channels were no longer encrypted and were quietly found on the television.

Curiosity
At some point in the 1980s, the channel had a 2-month hiatus in March without motivation, and then resumed broadcasting in June.

In 2017 there was an attempt to return by creating a new channel named JuniorMedia Inc., but closed after 2 months for the few ratings he made.
