AZN Television
Owned by	International Networks

AZN Television (formerly called International Channel) promoted itself as "the network for Asian America". It was run by International Networks, a wholly owned subsidiary of Comcast Corporation. The channel’s programming targeted the fast-growing, young, affluent, English-speaking Asian American community. Genres included the most popular Asian films, dramas, documentaries, music and anime as well as a diverse slate of original programming. It competed in certain markets with ImaginAsian Television.

Layoffs and closure

In late 2005, news of mass layoffs at the network prompted fears that Comcast would shut down AZN.¹ However, the network remained on the air and continued to sponsor the annual Asian Excellence Awards, which highlights Asian American achievement in film and television.

AZN ceased broadcast on April 9, 2008 at 12:00PM Eastern/11:00AM Central. It is no longer on the air.²³
