NHD-CNN CHANNEL

The CNN Channel was launched on Sunday, June 1, 1980, by Ted Turner. Its headquarters, are in Atlanta, Georgia. This was the first channel that broad casted the news for 24- hours a day.  This made people more active in the world. For example, the Gulf War (1991), CNN was the only news station that could communicate within Iraq. This gave people a chance to know what was happening within the war. It wasn't long before people started mimicking Ted Turner's idea. On January 1, 1982 a station called CNN2(Headline News) launched itself. By June 2008, CNN was available in over 93 million households.
