Canal 4 (Nueva Imagen, S.A.) is a state-run nationwide terrestrial television channel in Nicaragua owned by Informativos de Televisión y Radio S.A. (Intrasa), a company owned by two sons of Nicaraguan President Daniel Ortega, Carlos Enrique "Tino" Ortega and his brother Daniel Edmundo.

[3] Before the formation of the Sandinist government, the frequency was first used by Telecadena Nicaraguense, assigned to Oleoductos de Nicaragua S.A., from Anastasio Somoza Debayle, and granted to journalist Luis Felipe Hidalgo.

[4] In 1990, with the defeat of the Sandinist regime, the channel was reactivated[1] and in the early 1990s, Remigio Ángel González helped the FSLN in the creation of Canal 4, initially led by Dionisio Marenco.

[5] During this period, the channel aired cartoons and music videos aimed at younger audiences until 8pm, and from then until sign-off, feature films and telenovelas.

[9] Over time, the RATENSA administration caused a debt for the channel, as the Sandinists were unable to pay the programs they bought from González.
