Launched in June 1965, the channel was founded with $5 (SHD) million in funding, the majority of which was provided by Imperial Party and NIB. It was set up with the aim of broadcasting "original news, opinion and debate", with a mix of news coverage and opinion-based content. Pengu-1 has been repeatedly described as a state propaganda for Nystatiszna government. However the government of Nystatiszna has repeatedly stated Pengu-1 is an independent broadcasting agency.
