National Television Corporation

National Television Corporation (stylized as NTC; also known as The NTC Network) is an American independent commercial television network. The network has passed through several eras to get to the current network we have in the United States.
==History==
===International Broadcasting Corporation era (1962-1984)===
 During 1962, IBC Radio went to broadcast on television after the company got a new CEO, by the name of William Neylord (nicknamed Big Bill). The new network started to broadcast on May 5, 1962, with Neylord opening the network.
===Bachmann Network (1984-2016)===
It started when Bachmann-Malone Holdings bought the International Broadcasting Corporation in 1983. In September 22, 1984, Bachmann Network was launched, with a celebration in Bachmann's headquarters, in New York. In 1985, Bachmann-Malone made a deal with WOW Television Operations, buying many CBS, ABC, NBC, PBS, and ABN affiliates and turning them into Bachmann affiliates. This started the 1985 US TV broadcast realignment.
===NTC era (2016-present)===
After several lawsuits and several FCC violations commited by the company, the CEO Martin Nald stepped down from his post, and sold the network to his cousin Jerry Salmond, which then renamed the company to National Television Corporation. Many media companies described the renaming of the network as not a smart move. In August 2016, it was announced that NTC would be working with the 8K tecnology after a partnership with ABS for the 2018 Winter Olympics.
==Incidents==
===The fire inside studio 2===
In August 3, 1990, a fire started at studio 2 (secondary studio for the Morning Show) due to a short circuit at the energy cables. The fire started during 3:45 pm and it was recorded by security cameras. The network made an evacuation from the studios next to studio 2.
