I know, a while back there was a thread displaying the other news channels from around the world, i did contribute to that but i only provided pictures. and i know, Pictures Are really nothing compared to Audio and videos. so here's an introduction once again to Channel News Asia from Singapore. Do share some clips from your country's television stations! Wink

Ok, i've captured one programme from this network, it's "the World Today"... Don't Get excited cause really it's nothing compared to BBC World's TWT.

This Version of TWT is shown on the channel every even hour. The first edition is at 10am SG/HK Time, then the next is at 12pm, followed by 2pm, 4pm and 6pm. During the Odd hours except 1pm, Asia Today is shown and once again it's nothing compared to the BBC World's edition. I'll try to get the titles captured one of these days. anyway, here's the Link:

The World Today Opening 4.19 mb (Asf format)

While I was in Asia it wasn't really my first choice of news channel, but it's not too bad, certainly a lot better than other SE Asian news channels. Would like to see them move out of that virtual studio, though.

It's a little like Sky News in that it's focus was on Singapore (where it's based) but at the same time was trying to be an international channel. Too many recorded back half hours for me, but there were the occasional good shows, especially when they took the main Panorama-style programmes from different countries and added subtitles, it gave a bit more depth in understanding the countries than the likes of World Report.

Yes, though its meant to be Asia Today or World Tonight you would often find our news in them. Laughing But I have to say its really quite a good news channel. Gotten information that they hope to get a new studio up next year after viewers wrote to them about the same virtual backdrop being used across all news bulletins.

I have to say I quite like it. I always look forward to watching it any time I am passing through SIN. (Which I will be, next week.)

Although I'm in England - here are some pictures of newschannels across the world (well Europe mainly)

This is where most news channels get their pictures off - APTN (not really a channel)

SKY TG24 was launched about one and a half year ago... The newsroom is very nice, the music not bad, graphics and astons not very good... It has immediately become one of the two big 24hrs news channels here in Italy (the other is public - better news quality but definitely not impressive from a presentation point of view).
