History

edit

It is unknown when did TV Atlântico start broadcasting. As of 2006, the station was licensed to SAT - Sistema Atlântico de Telecomunicações, which was registered on March 2 that year.[2] Until 2014, the station was owned by Raimundo Euclides Santos Neto, alias "Quidão", who was in charge of the station's administration and general management.[1] In early 2014, an interview given to governor Simão Jatene in the 2012 electoral campaign[3] caused a political controversy, leading to the ineligibility of Quidão and Jhonas Santos de Aguiar (pesident of the PSDB committee for Dom Eliseu since 2012) until 2020.[1] Its facilities as TV Atlântico were auctioned off in the early 2020s.[4]

The station as of 2017 was known as TV Cidade Dom Eliseu[5] and since 2021, it adopted the current name Prime TV.
