LNT featured TV series, news and entertainment programmes, airing 24 hours a day in Latvian.
In December 1999, Polsat founder Zygmunt Solorz-Żak bought the channel, aiming to merge its management with Estonia's TV1 and Lithuania's BTV to establish a Baltic television network.
The move was later approved by the Council of Competitiveness of Latvia on the condition that TV3, which MTG already owned, and LNT would retain independent news boards for at least five years.
