Lietuvos ryto TV Live Stream

Lietuvos ryto TV is a Lithuanian television channel launched on 12 October 2008 by the Lietuvos rytas publishing group, the company behind the country's largest daily newspaper. It replaced the earlier 5 kanalas service.

A newspaper's newsroom on screen

The channel began with a newsroom culture that came from print: reporters used to breaking stories rather than reading them out. Its grid is news-heavy by design, with the information programme Reporteris airing several editions a day and Lietuva tiesiogiai (Lithuania Live) taking the country live.

Valanda su Valatka

The talk show Valanda su Valatka (An Hour with Valatka) gives politicians and public figures an hour of questions, and the weekly review 24/7 sums up what mattered. Long-form political interviewing is where a Lithuanian channel competes with the national broadcaster, which dominates routine news coverage.

Basketball and the rest of the schedule

Between the news bulletins the schedule carries documentary cycles on Lithuanian life, the detective series Senis and Krepšinio pasaulyje (In the World of Basketball). Basketball in Lithuania is followed with a seriousness that other countries reserve for football, and a national channel's sports coverage reflects it.

Ownership since 2019

The channel has changed hands: the media company Singing Fish acquired it in 2019, while the newspaper connection remained in the schedule. Its studios are on Gedimino prospect in Vilnius, and it works under the slogan "Teisinga kryptimi" — in the right direction.
