The core target group were the 25 to 59 year olds who wanted “good entertainment with added value”.

Awards

Ebru was nominated for the Hot Bird TV Award in the “Culture and Education” category.

The name

The former station name Ebru TV was based on the traditional art of marbling in the Turkish style, called Ebru . Flower patterns are applied to glue with special colors and combined into a total work of art on paper. Each color adds to the beauty of the whole, but retains its own shape without mixing with the other patterns.

Because the word "Ebru" ( Turkish for "eyebrow") restricted the target group, the name was changed to QLAR on April 15, 2015 . Like the adjective, the new name was pronounced clearly and, according to the head of marketing, should stand for “quality and a source of good entertainment with added value”.

Structure and financing

QLAR belonged to the media company World Media Group AG. The company was seen as close to the Gülen movement .

QLAR was produced and distributed by Offenbach-based Peyk Media GmbH, one of four subsidiaries of World Media Group AG. In addition to QLAR, it also produces content for the Turkish-language full program Samanyolu TV and is a Europe-wide license holder for the distribution of the Turkish-language special-interest channels Samanyolu Haber (news) and Mehtap (culture).

As a free TV broadcaster , QLAR financed itself through classic sales of advertising time and various special forms of advertising.
