Description Did Zenith hit its peak too early? The maker of many "firsts" -- first portable radio, first TV remote control, and others -- the former US manufacturer is now a wholly-owned subsidiary of South Korea's LG Electronics (LGE). (LGE purchased a majority share in the company in 1995 and the rest in 1999 following Zenith's fall into bankruptcy.) Founded in 1918, the company sold all of its manufacturing operations and now focuses on research and development efforts for parent LGE, which continues to sell Zenith brand LCD TVs, DVD players, home theater systems, and digital TV tuner converter boxes (all made overseas).
