Omid-e-Iran OITN (English: Hope of Iran) is an American television network, inaugurated in 1995.[1] The original mission was to broadcast television content and news to the Iranian American community of Southern California, however the scope broadened to the international Iranian community.[2][when?][citation needed] The network was founded by Nader Rafiee, who started their journalist career on IRTV.[1] In 2004, it set up an office in Dubai, closer to Iran, airing six hours of programming locally. The channel is free-to-air and financed by commercial advertising.[1] Omid-e-Iran has programming in English and Persian languages.[1]
