Alfa TV (Macedonian: Алфа ТВ) is a privately owned TV station in North Macedonia. Its headquarters is in Skopje, and the program director until 2018 was Ljubomir Nikolovski. Since 2018, the director is Vasko Eftov. Then he was relieved and the new director was Jani Bojadzi
The station is considered to be supportive of former Prime Minister Nikola Gruevski of the VMRO-DPMNE party and to be majority-owned by Peter Schatz, a Hungarian media tycoon closely allied with Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán. The station and the Schatz-owned web portal Ripostmk.com are currently under investigation by Macedonian authorities due to running expensive ads worth €3.2 million for small Hungarian companies linked to Schatz and to have used the money to push support for Gruevski in 2017, while disproportionally undermining the government of Zoran Zaev.
Alfa TV has also received criticism from the civic fact-checking organization F2N2 for promoting misinformation concerning foreign investment and Russian influence in the country.
