History
In the 1990s, during the presidency of Carlos Salinas de Gortari, several companies were privatized, including Imevisión (Spanish: Instituto Mexicano de Televisión; English Mexican Television Institute), which owned two channels (Red Nacional 7 and Red Nacional 13), which after its privatization, it would be renamed Televisión Azteca, S.A de C.V (except Canal 22 would pass under the power of Conaculta).[3]

En 1994 se colorizó el logo del águila, tomando cinco de los seis colores del Logotipo de la NBC, solo que en orden inverso: Verde, azul, morado, rojo y amarillo, con las palabras "Televisión Azteca" en tipografía Times New Roman en negro, y sobre fondo blanco.

En este año, se le hace su última modificación después de 2 años de darle color a su logotipo con la misma águila, las palabras "Televisión Azteca" se abrevian nuevamente a "TV Azteca" alterando la tipografía, conservando aun así su color e imagen.
