The Global Broadcasting Company was formed on September 12th, 1919 by news partners Edward Singh and Leah Kennedy. Both Edward and Leah had previously worked at the Acta Diurna News Agency based in Isa. They were, at the time, renowned for their accuracy in stories and for being able to extract sensitive information from a variety of different sources.
In 1917, however, the agency began to face economic hardships. Many of its customers were buying newspapers from other agencies or preferring to listen to the news on the radio instead of having their own newspaper articles. In early 1918, a fire struck the headquarters of the Acta Diurna news agency and, with income sources lost, it was unable to resist until repairs were completed.
Edward and Leah left the corporation after its collapse and, with the help of various other members under their leadership, managed to establish a new corporation named Imperial News. They grew rapidly, hiring many of the workers from their previous employer, but also hiring many new people; this was due largely to the fact that the Imperial News agency printed not only articles for newspapers, but also established several radio channels where individuals could tune in to listen to the news.
The success of Imperial News drew attention from many investors and other wealthy individuals, who diverted money from other investments to the Imperial News corporation, which only accelerated its growth. Before 1930, it was among the most prestigious news agencies in Thedosia.
The 1930s in particular, however, were difficult for the corporation. The economic downturn of the Imperial Republic was a major factor in the closing of establishments and the reduction of broadcast time and distances. Advertisement also became more and more common in their newspapers in an attempt to increase revenue. The Imperial government eventually permitted loans to be taken out with the government itself to stimulate the economy, although the difficult of the times remained.
It wasn’t until the Great War that the economy was renewed. The massive production of the nation reactivated the economy, and Imperial News’ revenues began to rise once more. Additionally, the company was among the few news agencies allowed to follow Imperial forces in their campaigns during the war, which increased its popularity back home as nationalistic tendencies became more common in the homeland.
Following the end of the war, Imperial News’ popularity continued to grow. Its newspaper articles were the most famous across the Imperial Republic and its radio—and eventually, TV—broadcasts were the most listened to in the country. In the 1990s, in a bid to establish itself as the largest broadcasting company in the nation, Imperial News gobbled a number of much smaller news outlets, and renamed itself the Global Broadcasting Company.
In the early 21st Century, the new GBC made the decision to remove physical newspaper articles altogether in preference of the new and exciting web portals and its own mobile phone application, where news articles could be more efficiently archived and reach a significantly higher number of people around the world.
Today, the GBC operates primarily in the Grand Imperial Republic, but its news website are looked at around the world and its television broadcasts are widely available. It is the oldest still-standing news agency in the Empire and the one generating the highest revenue, as well as employing the largest number of individuals. Effectively, the GBC has become the largest news corporation in the Imperial Republic.
