Is there a (free) news channel, broadcasting news all day?


BBC News
Sky News
CNN


Al Jazera
France today
Russia today
Euronews


Etc.


None of those are listed in the Radio Times, so I'll ask again, are there
any news channels on freeview and what channels are they?

Why don't you just look since you don't believe what you have just

been told!!

I have looked and as I said, I could not find any of them in the Radio
Times, perhaps, as I am so stupid, you could point out where I can find
them?

In the aether?

Not every channel is listed in the RT. There wouldn't be much point with
all-news channels as they would just say, "News... News... More News."

Look here for all the Freeview channels:

Err, look on your DTT box! The Radio Times does not list all of the
available channels, but several replies you have received here have pointed
you in the direction of web sites that do list the available channels but
you seem to have completely ignored them.

Stop playing games.

BBC News is on Freeview Ch 80
Sky News is on Freeview Ch 82

OK ?

Actually if you look at the online tv guide for the UKofGB&NI at

http://www.tvguide.co.UK

where you can pick 'n' mix your own selection of news (and other genres)
you will see that for the news stations it does not just give a listing
of "news, news, more news" for BBC News or CNN Europe or Al Jahzeera
English.

Does your set top box or integrated television received
not provide you with an EPG listing of all stations?
