Channel 4 is a British public-service television broadcaster which came into being as the fourth British television station (after BBC, ITV and BBC2). It is largely commercially self-funded but ultimately publicly owned. Channel 4’s mission is to prove that a channel with no public funding can keep its public service values to the fore while remaining commercially competitive.
