Programming
In 2001, Class Editori partnered with NBCUniversal to form Class CNBC, a joint venture of business television. It was the first and only business TV channel in Italy, utilizing CNBC's global network for 24/7 financial news and journalism. Class CNBC broadcasts on SKY Italia channel 507 and on other streaming services, such as Milano Finanza, "Le TV di Class Editori" App and GO TV.
The earliest broadcast channel of Class Editori is the Gambero Rosso Channel, which first aired on SKY on 1 July, 1999. This channel mainly covers food, wine, Italian culture, and tourism. Gambero Rosso is sometimes broadcast abroad in China, Switzerland, and on Alitalia flights (now ITA Airways).

Why this record matters
The phrase “italian tv channel” supplies a clear boundary for inquiry. It also exposes the unanswered questions: who defined that boundary, when it became stable and which sources sit outside it.
The citation trail is more important than the brevity of the summary: it shows where individual claims can be examined in context. The source revision retrieved here is dated Sep 2, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q3679161. 1 of 2 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 2003, 2010, 2011 and 2015.
Overview language is designed for orientation and should not be treated as a substitute for the evidence cited beneath it. The source lead contains qualifying language; that uncertainty should survive quotation, summary and reuse. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
