It's Thursday, July 17, 2008, and this is your first early morning International & Multicultural briefing. INTERNATIONAL MARKET: Freeview has been officially launched by Australia's free-to-air commercial TV networks and public broadcasters. Shareholders include the ABC, SBS, the Seven Network, the Nine Network, Network Ten, Prime, WIN and Southern Cross with ABC's Director/Television, Kim Dalton, chairing the non-profit. As of 2009, Australian legislation will enable the commercial free-to-air networks to broadcast an additional standard def (SD) channel each in addition to their primary SD and high def channels. The three new channels will bring the number of channels suites marketed under the Freeview to 15. MTV Networks Wallonia has received the go ahead from the Conseil Superieur de l'Audiovisuel to become an authorized broadcaster in the French-speaking Belgium. The authorization covers both Nickelodeon and MTV through 2017 with an option to renew the license at that time. For the past couple of years, both networks have been airing in the country but the authorities are now requiring them to air content created for Belgian viewers as well as donate cash or production facility time to the French-speaking Belgian audiovisual community in accordance with local laws. ProSieben's Galileo science entertainment magazine will make its debut in Sweden and Norway this fall in its regular Friday 8p slot on Norway's TVNORGE as of September 5. A few weeks later on September 30, Sweden's Kanal 9 will premiere a 45-minute version in primetime on Tuesdays. The program will have its own host in each country and will keep its original Galileo title. The daily original German show has been airing for more than 10 year, also putting in appearances in Denmark, Poland, Russia, Belgium, the Czech Republic and China. HISPANIC MARKET: WAPA America will launch on Time Warner Cable in the New York City region as of July 23 on its DTV en Espanol service. The channel comes out of Puerto Rico with WAPA-TV content. Banda artist Yolanda Perez is the new host of LATV's regional Mexican music show, Mex 2 the Max (Mon-Thu, 9-930p PT). The network's new programming lineup includes LATV-produced and global concerts, two new music video shows and a special video countdown program from Universal Studios. Mi Beat airs the latest videos and hits on weekdays from 4-5p.
