RTR produces two newscasts: one with local news and other with news from Catamarca. A weekend cultural show called La Rioja que Usted no Conoce ("The La Rioja You Don't Know") is also presented.[citation needed]

Most of the schedule is filled with the network offerings: soap operas, national news, movies, sitcoms and cartoons. This changed in March 2020 when it left behind its Telefe affiliation and became an affiliate of Televisión Pública Argentina, allowing an increase in its local productions.[3][4]
