One Media Network

Golden Nation Network (GNN) is a national news and public affairs television channel in the Philippines owned by Global Satellite Technology Services (GSTS), operator of GSAT Direct TV. GNN was established in 2019 by a team of broadcast industry veterans with the aim of offering a credible, well-rounded alternative to mainstream media.

The channel is known for its extensive news coverage, public service programming, government affairs reporting, and civic engagement initiatives. It operates under the mission to Inform, Educate, Inspire, and Be Better, and carries the slogan: ''"One World. One Nation. One Station."''

History

GNN was founded in 2019 as a successor to Global Kabayan TV (2003–2006), Philippine Cable Television (2006–2008) and Global News Network (2008–2019) and briefly rebranded as One Media Network (2019–2021; 2023–2024). The Golden Nation Network branding was officially relaunched in January 2025 to unify its nationwide presence and reinforce its identity as a public-oriented broadcaster.

Originally available through GSAT Channel 1, GNN expanded its coverage via free-to-air television stations and cable providers.
