Staying up-to-date with what's happening in the world used to be a slow business. People had to wait until the evening news came on to get the latest. With PC TV you can get the news online anytime you want.
I get a number of emails asking about the kinds of US news stations available with programs like PC Show Buzz. The good 'news' is that there's a stack of really good stations in this area from around the world. As well as the big name us news companies. I did some digging and found some of the US stations you can watch with PC TV.
ABC News
This is one of the best news stations you can watch online. As well as the headlines, you can watch:
- Good Morning America
- Good Morning America Weekend Edition
- ABC World News with Charles Gibson
- ABC World News Saturday & Sunday
- 20/20
- Primetime
- Nightline
- ABC World News Now
- ABC World News This Morning
And a lore more. (There's a full schedule of what's on available here) The quality is good and there's no breaks in the video that I could notice on my relatively slow connection.
Fox News
The version of Fox you'll get with online TV is called Fox 8. As well as all the latest news, they feature sports, game shows (like Jeopardy) and weather.

CNN
Currently the most popular news station in America. Features shows such as:
- American Morning
- CNN Newsroom
- Your World Today
- The Situation Room
- Lou Dobbs Tonight
- Paula Zahn Now
- Larry King Live
- Anderson Cooper 360°
It's represented well online with a good quality video and clear audio. If you're wanting to stay on top of current affairs, this is definitely a place you'll want to keep coming back to.

Bloomberg USA
I love Bloomberg. You can get both the UK and US versions of the station with PC Show Buzz and it's the ideal place to stay on top of trends and business news. Also includes world news and how it might impact on the different markets.
Again, a high quality broadband video stream with excellent sound. All the better for those gorgeous business women they get on there. Sorry, just a personal fetish!
There's a great TV Schedule here with full listings of what's due on for the full week.
