CNN Newsroom (international TV program)


CNN Newsroom is the main newscast airing on CNN International. The programme is also simulcast on the domestic version of CNN - named on-air as Newsroom Live to avoid confusion with the locally based newscast - during its overnight downtime.

Previous incarnations

CNN International's main newscast brand for much of the 1990s and 2000s was simply World News. The majority of bulletins were presented from CNN Center in Atlanta, although some editions came from Washington, D.C.. From the late 1990s onwards, there was also World News Europe, which was presented from London and ran during European primetime, and Asia Tonight which was broadcast from Hong Kong.

''World Report'' (2009–2013)

On September 21, 2009, CNN Today, Your World Today and World News were rebranded as World Report; the network's long-running week-in-review programme, CNN World Report took a new name, World View, to make way for the new branding. Initially, World Report ran multiple times per day; however, as CNN International's schedule evolved, this gradually reduced to two separate three-hour morning blocks for Asian and European audiences, as well as regular bulletins at weekends.
The Asian morning edition of World Report was rebranded as CNN Newsroom in November 2012, to coincide with the revamp of CNN's Hong Kong studio, and the introduction of a new anchor team in Andrew Stevens and Patricia Wu.
Asian edition anchor Anna Coren received the 2011 Asian Television Award for "Best News Presenter or Anchor" for her work on the programme.

''CNN Newsroom'' (2013–present)

Effective June 17, 2013, World Report and World One were renamed CNN Newsroom. The new show was branded with new graphics, and originally used the previous World Report theme music, although this was changed quickly to the World One music. In 2014, a completely new theme was introduced.
