Tanzania Broadcasting Corporation (TBC) is the only public broadcaster on Tanzania mainland. TBC is a public corporation established under the Public Corporation Act, 1992 to provide a public service broadcasting through radio and television. TBC is owned by the Government of the United Republic of Tanzania through the Treasury Register, a department within the Ministry of Finance, that holds 100 percent of shares. The interest of the government is to use TBC to reinforce government’s efforts in nation-building. Consequently, the Government expects TBC to be its mouthpiece rather than speak independently and objectively. This gives the impression that while TBC is legally a public broadcaster, there exist financial and political dependencies which lead TBC to operate as a state broadcaster in practice. TBC operates both radio and television public service outlets. Television service has two channels namely TBC1 and TBC2 whereas the radio service has three channels namely TBC Taifa, TBC FM and TBC International. In 1965, the nationalist government introduced in the National Assembly the TBC Dissolution Bill and Radio Tanzania Dar es Salaam was established as a department of the Ministry of Information, Broadcasting and Tourism. Public service television broadcast started trial transmission in October 16, 1999 and formal transmission started in March 15, 2000. On July 1, 2007 Radio Tanzania Dar es Salaam and the national television (TVT) were merged into Tanzania Broadcasting Corporation
