History



It started its transmission under name of CNBC Pakistan by taking a license from CNBC Asia. It was then owned by Vision Network Television.
In 2015, it was relaunched as Jaag TV after struggling to compete in the Pakistani market. The channel continued to struggle and was bought by Pakistani bakery company, Gourmet Bakeries. Reportedly, they bought it for Rs. 1.5 billion to diversify their business.
In 2018, the company announced its intention to rename the channel and relaunch it under the name, G News Network. For this purpose, they appointed Amir Mir, brother of journalist and anchor Hamid Mir, as the Chief Operating Officer (COO) of the channel.
On 10 August 2018, Hamid Mir left Geo TV and joined GNN as President of the channel along with two other colleagues Sohail Warraich and Munib Farooq. But his stint remained brief at GNN as two months later on 12 October 2018, Hamid Mir left GNN.
