## History

The Network was founded in April 20, 1969, as The Independent Entertainment Studios Network.

In 1986, the network was renamed as Independent Television Network.

In 1996, they changed the logo to the Iconic "I" logo.

In 2003, Independent Television Network was renamed to Independent Television.

In 2005, The Network was moved to replace PAX's feed.

In 2007, Independent Television was spun off & continued on its original signal.

In July of 2012, The Network had a lawsuit from ITV Plc, because of the network’s name is also the meaning for  ITV, so the changed their name to The I.

In September of 2012, The I was renamed to Independent Network to avoid another lawsuit with ITV, and because people Disliked The I branding.

In 2014, The Network was renamed to the Current Independent.

In 2020, The Network became sister networks with TEN.

In 2021, they reverted to their original yellow/orange logo.

In 2022, their logo will be blue following LN7Media's spinoff from SGWHMedia.
