History
Premier was founded on September 12, 1946 by A.H. Fuller. After obtaining broadcasting rights as well as purchasing 4 television stations (WNYP in New York, KLAP in Los Angeles, WCHP in Chicago, and WPEN in Philadelphia), it went on air on February 24, 1947. It rapidly started gaining affiliates, with the first, WDET in Detroit, beginning Premier broadcast on April 4, 1947. The rest of 1947 would see affiliates beginning operation in San Francisco, Pittsburgh, Miami, Atlanta, Seattle, St. Louis, Nashville, and Washington, D.C.

This growth has continued, with the company expanding into American territories abroad. The network remained independent until 2019, when it was acquired by WorldNorth Corporation.
