Al Jadeed (Arabic: الجديد, romanized: al-Jadīd, lit. 'the new', English: New TV) is an independent Lebanese TV station. Based in Beirut it was launched in 1992 and closed in 1997 due to Syrian intervention, and then relaunched in 2001.
On 9 May 2005, Al Jadeed was also launched in America and the Pacific, reaching Arabic-speaking immigrants in the United States, Canada, South America and Australia.[1] As of 2012, it has become available for viewers in South America through over-the-top technology on myTV.
In 2007, a copyright issue arose with the name "New TV" and the channel Arabized its name, to which it became Al Jadeed TV. The station is owned by Tahsin Khayat.[2]
