News 24 operates the popular news portal Balkanweb.[2][3] It was established in February 2000 by the Italian publishing company Edisud[4] (e.g. La Gazzetta del Mezzogiorno) funded with a contribution from the Soros Foundation and then sold to Focus Group in 2011.[5][1] Balkanweb's videos come almost exclusively from 'News 24'.[1]
