History


LNK was founded in Lapės after the reorganization of "LitPoliinter TV." On 1 April 1995, the Lithuanian Agricultural Bank became its main shareholder, with other shareholders including "Vilniaus Vingis," "Griaustinio Aidas," and the Lithuanian Workers' Union. The channel was officially launched throughout Lithuania on 5 May 1995. Initially, LNK mainly retransmitted Russian programs from ORT (now Channel One Russia), including its news bulletin Vremya.
In 1996, LNK replaced its previous content with original programming That year, an office was established in Vilnius. In the summer of 1997, several curated shows, such as "Dviračio šou," moved to Baltic Television. In October 1997, British Pacific Media Management purchased the company's shares from "Vilniaus Vingis," the company "Anoma," and the association of depositors affected by "LitPoliinter." In January 1998, Hubertas Grušnys and Clear Channel Communication International acquired 10% of LNK's shares from Aleksandras Ambrazevičius and 46% from British Pacific Media Management. In September of the same year, the Bonnier Group purchased 44% of LNK's shares from the Lithuanian Agricultural Bank and 56% from H. Grušnys. Following this acquisition, several employees from the LNK News Service moved to Baltic Television. In 2000, some of the former employees and shows returned to LNK.
In 2012, LNK switched to digital television. The channel primarily features Lithuanian shows, series, and other programming.
