Equestria News Network

The ENN: Equestria's largest radio and television network. Based in Manehatten, the network provides both a widespread radio service and a limited television service. It is also a sub-section of the Communications and Transfer division of the Royal Guard, and is subsequently directly subject to Celestia's orders. Their purpose is the reporting of news to the greater public of Equestria, through radio and, to a smaller extent, television. They also provide entertainment in the form of musical acts, a variety show, debates and the occasional play. An exclusive, experimental radio show called "The Silver Griffon" is also available. Due to the complexity, cost, and experimental nature of broadcast technologia, there is little available for them to provide outside the above listed. This is because the cameras rely on special crystals that need to be custom cut and shipped overseas from Caberico to Equestria.

The face of the ENN is the charismatic, widely beloved Crier Raven, who acts as the primary news anchor and debate moderator. Due to the importance of the safety of the listeners, viewers, and staff of the ENN, there are multiple security checks in place to ensure that no malevolent mage can take advantage of the signals to perform some misdeed.

History
The ENN was founded in the year 960AN by a stallion named Far Call, just three years after Equestria was introduced to radio technology in the first place. Its very first show was a single hour-long segment of news coverage. This initially relayed the local weather in Manehatten and the state of affairs with big topics.

Mere months after the organization was founded the first attempts of joining and even hijacking the airwaves began to appear. Due to the magical nature of the signal, it was found that it could be altered even as it traveled through the air itself, prompting Princess Celestia to take immediate action. Foreseeing the kinds of trouble that might be caused with such a widespread signal and the right skills, the ENN was drafted into the service of the Royal Guard's Communications and Transfer division, effectively becoming a offshoot of it and protecting the airwaves from any further tampering.

Unhappy with his creation being turned into what he saw as a military-lead organization, Far Call stepped down as CEO of the company, allowing the then-Captain of Com & Trans to take his place.
