A bunch. NBC feeds on 103, CNN feeds on 87, RT, NHK News, CGTN on 103 just to name a few...

Be careful not to confuse the terms channels and wild feeds. Channels implies something that is always there while wild feeds come and go on no discernible schedule.

24/7 channels available would be RT, CCTV, CGTN, CNN, Press TV. There are others..

Has anyone heard of a "France 24" news channel in English?

Has anyone heard of a "France 24" news channel in English?

It is live on YouTube.

 

[kittyhas1000legs]

It looks to be on C-band at 58W, probably too low for you to get in California. France 24 English - LyngSat

 

[Brct203]

you might be able to get France 24 on 180E Ku-band from California but I think that's only the French-language version.

Other News Channels in English (or at least channels with a significant focus on news) include DW-TV on 103W C-Band (from Germany), Newsy on 101W C-Band, CNC World English on 97W Ku-Band (Xinhua agency), Arirang on 58W C-Band (South Korea), i24 English on 121 C-Band (from Israel), Occasional news in English on KBS America on 123W Ku, CGTN News on 103W Ku, 95W Ku, 58W C and 55.5W C Band, TeleSur English somewhere on C-Band (I think there's still an English version somewhere), Some PBS news programs like Newshour on 87W Ku, 125W Ku and 103W C-Band

So my options are move out of California or learn French

Or stream it on YouTube as I posted above. I'm sure you could find bandwidth in one of the hundreds of hot-spots around "The City".

Surveys show that news isn't good for your health anyway.

I heard CNN is FTA in most Eastern hemisphere in C or Ku but why scrambled here good old USA? Why the double standard here in the USA to pay CNN and the rest of the world get CNN for free? Just Google it!?
