Following the 2011 revolution, which ended the rule of Zine El Abidine Ben Ali, Tunisia’s media sector entered a period of major change. Restrictions on reporting were loosened, and television and other news media gained greater room to address political and social issues that had previously been tightly controlled. Within this changed environment, public television has continued to hold an important national role. Télévision Tunisienne, based in Tunis, operates El Watania 1 and El Watania 2, providing Arabic-language news, cultural programming, and general-interest content for audiences across the country.
Squid TV organizes information about Télévision Tunisienne around its institutional background, location, language, programming focus, and national role. The two channels show how Tunisia’s public television combines national news and public information with cultural and general programming, while maintaining separate services within the same broadcaster. This context also helps place the broadcaster within the wider development of Tunisian television since the political and media changes that began in 2011.
