The news channel is partnered with free-to-air network Chilevisión since 2010, when Turner Broadcasting System purchased it for $145 million to Sebastian Piñera's family.

Since 2016, it is completely owned by Turner Broadcasting System Latin America as VTR sold its participation in the channel to them.
