From its 1974 launch, Global has grown to its current level of 15 stations owned by Corus, along with two independently-owned affiliates. [[St. John's, Newfoundland and Labrador]] independent station CJON-DT is also supplied with some Global programming, though it is not branded as such on the station (except for national newscast ''Global National'') but is instead marketed as syndicated programming.

==Criticism of liberal bias==
Once a bastion for fair reporting in its newscasts, Global, like the rest of the [[mainstream media]], has recently taken a turn toward the Left akin to the CBC and most of the American networks in its news reporting and has shown blatant [[liberal bias]] and dishonesty in certain reports it has filed.
*When the election campaign bus of Canadian Prime Minister [[Justin Trudeau]] was recently blocked by Aboriginal protesters during a campaign stop in [[Victoria, British Columbia|Victoria]], Global News political correspondent David Akin falsely claimed online that the bus had not been blocked and that video posted of the blockade by the protesters was "fake news" despite being present at the event.<ref>[https://www.rebelnews.com/trudeau_campaign_bus_blocked_by_indigenous_activists Trudeau campaign bus blocked by Indigenous activists] at Rebel News</ref> Akin was called out for his dishonesty soon after he made his claim online, with Rebel News reporters Sheila Gunn Reid and Efron Monsanto calling Akin fake news for his comments while videographer Mocha Bezirgan replied to Akin by pointing out to him that he was not telling the truth, then posted a half-hour time-lapse video of the incident showing the protesters' actions; rather than retract his lie or apologize, Akin, showing himself unwilling to face or accept the truth, responded by indignantly blocking Bezirgan from his Twitter account.
