NewsWorld International#REDIRECT Newsworld International Newsworld InternationalNewsworld International is an United States cable news channel which contains a mix of Canadian Broadcasting Corporation and other international newscasts. The channel reaches about 20 million homes and provides its audience with the news from a variety of global perspectives. It also acts as a news source for Canadians living in or visiting the United States. The network was launched by the CBC, in partnership with a subsidiary of Power Corporation of Canada in 1994, and aired much of the same programming as CBC Newsworld in Canada. In 2000, the channel was sold to the USA Network for $155 million. It was then sold to one of the companies which would become Vivendi Universal. In 2004, the channel was purchased by former Vice-President of the United States Al Gore and Joel Hyatt. The programming will continue to be provided by the CBC until July 31, 2005. Gore and Hyatt plan to relaunch the channel on August 1 as Current TV (formerly ''InDTV''), specializing in a youth perspective on national issues. Gore and Hyatt went down this route after deciding that a liberal news network would be rejected by national advertisers. The new channel will incorporate internet feedback to inform its programming. ==Current NWI Contributors== *CBC contributes ''The National'' and its weekend substitutes; ''CBC News: Sunday'' and ''CBC News: Sunday Night'', most of its international news output (including ''Hemispheres (television program)'', a parnership with the Australian Broadcasting Corporation), plus NWI's internal newscasts and newsmagazines *Deutsche Welle's English newscast and its English weekend newsmagazine *NHK's major English newscast and its English weekend newsmagazine *CCTV's English newscast *ITV's domestic ''Evening News'' (produced by ITN) ==External link== *[http://www.nwitv.com/ Newsworld International] U.S. television networks 24-hour television news channels Canadian Broadcasting Corporation See other meanings of words starting from letter: NNA | NB | NC | ND | NE | NF | NG | NH | NI | NJ | NK | NL | NM | NO | NP | NR | NS | NT | NU | NW | NX | NY | NZ |Words begining with Newsworld_International: NewsWorld_International Newsworld_International |
