Cadenatres is a broadcast television network in Mexico which is owned by Grupo Empresarial Ángeles (GEA), a company headed by Olegario Vázquez Raña and directed by Olegario Vázquez Aldir. Originally started by its flagship XHTRES in Mexico City as an independent broadcast television station serving the Federal District and the Valley of Mexico, it later expanded coverage throughout the entire state through various cable television systems, then transformed into a national broadcast network in Mexico.
History
On May 28, 2007, GEA relaunched XHRAE-TV under the name cadenatres (lit. Network Three), creating new programs and newscasts while retaining most of its cartoons aimed at children. The network’s coverage expanded from Mexico City to the entire Mexican republic through various cable television systems, and later, became the flagship station of the third national broadcast network after the Supreme Court declared unconstitutional the part of the Federal Telecommunications Act better known as the Televisa Law that had prevented the birth of a third broadcast network in Mexico and strengthened the duopoly that TV Azteca and Televisa had enjoyed.
By September 30, 2009, its flaghship station had changed its call sign to XHTRES-TV from XHRAE, reflecting its network identity.[1]
