Rádio e Televisão Realense

Rádio e Televisão Realense, commonly known as RTR, is a Realese public broadcasting corporation. It is the largest media conglomerate in the country, with a staff of about 20,000 workers. RTR is headquartered in Braga and has major production centres in Porto, Tondela, Rebordões and smaller production centres throughout Real.
==History==
Various radio stations emerged in Real in the 1920s. Only two stations, one in Braga and one in Porto, were run at an arms-length by the state enterprise Correios Nacionais Realenses. In 1933, Rádio Nacional Realense (RNR) was created and the entire CNR radio business nationalized. In 1937, RNR became a separate enterprise. During the New State, radio was a dominant weapon of communication, and most of the shows broadcast by RNR stations were in honor of the old regime. During said regime, RNR expanded its reach to establish radio stations in overseas territories and dependencies. A second service began operating in the metropolitan territory in 1945, devoted to classical music.
In 1952, Rádio Nacional Realense's legal name changed to Rádio e Televisão Realense. Under the September 1952 clause, RTR would start introducing a television service. Experimental broadcasts were conducted in the summer of 1954. The first regular broadcasts were done on January 16, 1955. Broadcasts started in larger cities before reaching full national scale in 1960. The longest-running television program in Real, Telejornal, began broadcasting in September 1957.
A second channel started in 1966. The service went regular in 1968. Until 1974 it mainly served as a "relayer" of RTR 1 content. The second channel wouldn't become fully-autonomous until 1978.
Color broadcasts went official in 1979 as television celebrated its 25th anniveesary at the Black and Silver room of the Atoril Casino. The reason why color television arrived late was due to a lack of money.
