Etymology

The name of the channel, Markíza (Marquise), in the words of its director in 2008, evoked "freshness, glamour, prestige", which was seen as something "out of the ordinary".[3]

History

"Markiza is a daughter of the HZDS", said Emília Boldišová, who led the license drive, which refused to give a license to Pavol Rusko because he hid the co-owner from abroad, Sylvia Volzová. The committee in December 1994 issued a license to Markíza – Slovakia, Blatné, spol. s. r. o. which was awarded on 7 August 1995. According to Boldišová, thanks to the then president of the Slovak National Council Ivan Gašparovič, his assistent Ľuboš Jurík and Oľga Keltošová.[4][5]
