History[edit]

Headquarters of the TV station, in 2008.

The station's history begins on November 21, 1973, when President Emílio Garrastazu Médici granted the concession of channel 6 VHF to Rede Brasil Sul de Comunicações. TV Bagé was inaugurated on January 19, 1977, with the presence of the then Minister of Communications Euclides Quandt de Oliveira.

On October 1, 1983, TV Bagé, along with other RBS TV stations in Rio Grande do Sul and Santa Catarina, was renamed RBS TV Bagé. In 1985, its first relay went on the air, channel 12 of Dom Pedrito. Later, the repeaters of Pinheiro Machado and Santana do Livramento entered the air, forming the region covered by RBS TV Bagé.

In 2005, due to Rede Globo's 40th anniversary, RBS TV Bagé and all other RBS TV stations received a standardized scenario in accordance with the network's local telejournalism to be used in the local blocks of Jornal do Almoço and RBS News. The scenario of television news in Bagé has photos of the region reproduced on large panels in the studio.

In July 2009, an Ibope survey confirmed the audience leadership of RBS TV Bagé. According to the survey, the local Jornal do Almoço in Bagé had an average share of 71.5% between April and June of the same year.[1]
