Golden Nation Network (GNN) is a national news and public affairs television channel in the Philippines owned by Global Satellite Technology Services (GSTS), operator of GSAT Direct TV. GNN was established in 2019 by a team of broadcast industry veterans with the aim of offering a credible, well-rounded alternative to mainstream media.
The channel is known for its news coverage, public service programming, government affairs reporting, and civic engagement initiatives.
History
GNN was founded in 2019 as a successor to Global Kabayan TV (2003–2006), Philippine Cable Television (2006–2008) and Global News Network (2008–2019) and briefly rebranded as One Media Network (2019–2021; 2023–2024). The Golden Nation Network branding was officially relaunched in January 2025 to unify its nationwide presence and reinforce its identity as a public-oriented broadcaster.
Originally available through GSAT Channel 1, GNN expanded its coverage via free-to-air television stations and cable providers. The network restructured its operations to focus more on high-impact journalism and government transparency initiatives. It now reaches over 10 million viewers across the country.
