Chilevisión (often abbreviated as CHV) is a Chilean free-to-air television channel. As the third oldest Chilean television network, owned by Paramount Networks Americas. Founded by the University of Chile, this educational institution sold a significant percentage of its TV channel to Grupo Cisneros, changing its name to Chilevisión. It was later sold to Claxson Interactive Group in 2000 and then to Chilean investor and president Sebastián Piñera in 2006.
On 28 August 2010, Turner Broadcasting System Latin America announced its agreement to purchase Chilevisión. These assets do not include the analog television channel frequency (which was still owned by Universidad de Chile at the time). This contract expired in 2018 and only affected the analog frequencies used by the station. The sale closed on 6 October 2010.
On 5 April 2021, it was announced that ViacomCBS (now Paramount Global) had reached an agreement to acquire Chilevisión from WarnerMedia Latin America. The sale was granted approval on July 5, 2021, and completed on October 1, 2021.
