The Central Daily News signed on its first television station DXJL-TV in Jolo, Sulu. That station has been sold in 2000, and all but two of Central's television stations were acquired through a purchase instead of being built. Most of Central's radio stations were also acquired through purchase.
== History ==
=== Central Daily News (1961-1990s) ===
The Central Daily News's involvement in television was driven by its potential for spreading information, and the paper was awarded a license in Jolo, Sulu on VHF channel 8, DXJL-TV, and became a VGC affiliate; DXJL was later sold to a local company in 2000 and became an independent a year later.
