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]

First Logo of TV Azteca, designed by Javier García Rivera designing a stylized eagle which is currently used with the difference that it is completely black, it was used from 1992 (before the tender and subsequent acquisition) until the complete acquisition of Imevisión by Ricardo Salinas Pliego on August 2, 1993
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.
Desde 2011 hasta 2015, la marca de la compañía se renombró simplemente como "Azteca"
