The owner of the channel is Moldovan oligarch Vlad Plahotniuc.[1][2][3][4][5] Since its inception, it was one of Moldova's most popular channels.

The channel was criticized and on 4 July 2014, the Coordinating Council of the Audiovisual of Moldova sanctioned Prime and other channels for broadcasting Russian "informative-analytical" programs, which contained aggressive propaganda and promotes and increases fake news and information regarding the Ukrainian government.[6]
