Golden Nation Network (GNN) is a national news and public affairs television channel in the Philippines owned by Global Satellite Technology Services (GSTS), operator of GSAT Direct TV. GNN was established in 2019 by a team of broadcast industry veterans with the aim of offering a credible, well-rounded alternative to mainstream media.^{[citation needed]}

Originally available through GSAT Channel 1, GNN expanded its coverage via free-to-air television stations and cable providers, and further expand its presence through digital platforms including social media channels and YouTube.
