Minor Language TV Channels in the U.S.

Wasn't expecting this to be almost 20 minutes long. This video shows a long compilation of station IDs and news intros of American TV channels that are in languages that are not English or Spanish. Most of these are local channels in low power TV stations or cable, making them low in budget, having similar energy to public access TV.
To note, there aren't any American TV channels in a Native American language, as FNX and NATV are English. However, there is a Lakotah dub for the Berenstain Bears.
I own nothing. All the content shown belongs to their respective owners. Only for educational, entertainment, and historical purposes. No monetization is made off this video or channel. If you wish to have your branding taken off this video, please contact me to do so.

    5:10 An authentic local Korean-speaking TV channel ID from one of the largest USA-based TV channels 6:22 The local Greek-speaking TV channel from Oldsmar was the only one that used Windows XP to broadcast via Windows Media Player (and that they were also now using VLC) 6:24 And this ident featured an iMovie song, Breakbeat 8:20 A very late-90s ID with a KZread Kids-styled music from the early-2010s 13:59 The Persian-speaking cable TV channel was the only one that showed a commercial to promote a live concert ad (and it was like 15 seconds showing Universal Studios Hollywood in California, LOL) 15:28 And an also very 90s ID and anime theme song from the mid-2000s

    Interesting i am from europe and i like to learn a lot of languages as a hobby. but i only started doing this in the 2010s because back before the modern internet learning languages was a lot harder. to learn a language you have to use it not just study all day. in my country most people learn English by watch tv because there is not enough good local media for most people. but other languages are a lot rarer on tv. but with the rise of the internet i noticed i could find a lot of fun media in Spanish or Russian or Japanese and more but that stuff simply wasn't on tv in the 90s in my region. it was mostly American or from other English speaking countries like the uk or Australia and from France and Germany because they are our Neighbours. America is even more monolingual but surprisingly these channels did exist. i think it was easier to start your own tv channel in the us than in europe. but i noticed most of these intros are from the 2000s or even current times. i know you normally focus on 80s and 90s stuff so i assume channels like these only became more common recently even if a few existed in the 80s.
