XHTV-TDT (channel 4) is a television station in Mexico City, serving as the flagship transmitter of the N+ Foro channel. It is owned and operated by Grupo Televisa alongside XEW-TDT, XHGC-TDT and XEQ-TDT carrying Las Estrellas, El 5* and NU9VE respectively; all four channels are run by TelevisaUnivision, which Grupo Televisa owns a majority stake in the company. Foro itself is operated by Triton Comunicaciones, which was Televisa's news division prior to the 2022 split.

Prior to 2010, channel 4 was a general entertainment network, carrying a variety of programs throughout its existence. Beginning that year, the Televisa Networks–owned Foro TV moved to channel 4, effectively dropping all non-news programming and as a result, Foro TV's oversight was moved to Televisa's broadcast division. The station is the first television station in Mexico and the oldest television channel in said country and Latin America.
