HLN ( Headlines ) is a basic American cable and satellite news channel owned by Time Warner's Turner Broadcasting System division. This channel is a spin-off from CNN (Cable News Network).
Originally labeled as CNN2 , and then CNN Headline News , the channel was originally composed to broadcast a tightly formatted 30-minute newswheel for 24 hours a day, with updated information updated briefly discuss various areas of interest (such as national news, sports, entertainment, weather and business). But since 2005, the format has shifted to tabloid news programs-long opinions, crime, and entertainment. In 2014, the network refocused more with an emphasis on social media, but the practice was discontinued in 2016 and more focused on traditional news coverage, with the rest of its staff dedicated to true crime programs (pulling a lot from the dead Court TV TV archive.
In July 2015, HLN was available for approximately 97 million American households (83.4% of households with at least one television set) in the United States making it the most distributed American cable network. Since the mid-2000s, HLN has been available internationally on cable and satellite in parts of Asia, the Caribbean, South America, the Middle East, North Africa and Canada.

History
Launch and early years
This channel was launched at midnight Eastern Time on January 1, 1982, as CNN2 . The launch of this channel is broadcast nationally on the CNN and Superstation WTBS sister networks (now only TBS), starting at 11:45. on December 31, 1981, as a preview for cable providers who have not yet reached an agreement to bring CNN2. Following the reel preview by CNN's original broadcaster Lou Waters and introduction by Ted Turner's founder and then-Turner Broadcasting CEO Chuck Roberts (who will be the channel's longest newscaster, with a 28-year career with CNN2/Headline News that lasts until retirement at 30 July 2010) and Denise LeClair - posted the channel's first newscast.
Initially, the channel program was formatted around ideas that viewers could watch anytime day or night (rather than having to wait only once or twice a day of national news segments on local newscasts, or early morning or evening news program networks), and received information updates on top national and international news in just 30 minutes. This "Headline News Wheel" flagship format: Ã,: 00 - national and world news; Ã,: 15 - business and personal financial statements ("Dollars and Sense"); Ã,: 20 - sports scores and headlines ("Headline Sports"); and: 25 - lifestyle report (from: 30, the news wheel is repeated again). Segment: 25/: 55 lifestyle is designed to allow the local cable system of choice to pre-empting with the local "capsule" headlines from related regional cable news channels or local television stations. Another regular feature, "Hollywood Minute", is often installed after the "Headline Sports" segment. In the early years of the channel, a two-minute recapitulation of the clock's main story, "CNN Headline," will run after the sports segment.
In January of the following year, his name was changed to Headlines . From around that point until 1992, the channel was often abbreviated as "HN" (the channel would later combine the dead "HN" block design in the original variant of the third logo when it was introduced in 1989, before it was completely replaced by the accompanying word in 1992 , which is then italicized). During the first year, Headline News had a competitor in the form of ABC/Group W's Satellite News Channel, which operated from June 21, 1982 to October 27, 1983. SNC's satellite slot was later purchased by Ted Turner to expand further Headline News coverage into additional homes.
Jon Petrovich was hired in the mid-1980s by Turner to lead Headline News. In 1990, Headline News developed Local Edition , a six-minute local news release, whose content was produced by local broadcasting stations in participating markets, airing at the end of every half hour of Headline News rolling news. This channel includes the "CNN" branding in its name intermittently for most of its history, before it was entered regularly from 1997 to 2007 (though an alternate logo without the CNN logo was used for news releases until 2001).
In 1989, Headline News introduced tickers that appeared on the bottom third of the screen - except during commercial breaks, which initially showed stock market data with indexes from major stock exchanges (including Dow Jones Industrial Average, NASDAQ and S & P 500) and quotes for large companies during trading hours, which are updated on a 15 minute delay. In 1992, the channel added "Headline News SportsTicker", which showed sports scores and schedules for the upcoming match of the day, creating the first continuous television news ticker. The redesign generates a video of the news broadcast being merged with the blue box on the left and right wings of the screen (matching the original color of the ticker), before returning to full screen format, with the ticker being a translucent black background. on the bottom third of the video, as part of the 1994 update to the channel chart package that also added weather forecasts for major US cities was selected to tickers; The ticker itself will add the Headline News logo, and as such, will no longer be visible next to the copyright date at the close.
George Bush's death spell George H. W. Bush/
On January 8, 1992, Headline News almost became a victim of hoax. When President George H. W. Bush passed out at a state dinner in Tokyo, Japan, someone who claimed to be a presidential physician was called to the Atlanta Channel headquarters and claimed that Bush had died. At 9:45 pm, anchor Don Harrison prepares to break the story, stating "It's only for CNN Headline News, and we say right off the bat, we have not confirmed this through other sources..." Executive producer Roger Bahre, outside the camera, immediately shouted "No! Stop!" After a moment's glance, Harrison continued, "We are now getting the correction.We will not give you the story.It is related to the rather tragic news involving President Bush, but to update the story, President Bush is reportedly resting comfortably." Apparently an Idaho man, James Edward Smith, called CNN disguised as a presidential doctor. A CNN employee puts that information into a centralized computer used by CNN and Headline News, and it's almost up in the air before it can be verified. Smith was then questioned by the Secret Service and hospitalized at a private medical facility for evaluation.
Jukebox effect
In 1992, Headline News pioneered the use of digital video "jukebox" to recycle a segment of one news broadcast seamlessly to another. New technology reduces the number of staff required by activating the news segment for reuse throughout the day (previously, the anchor reads the same story repeatedly, hour by hour, with the second 15 minutes every half hour in the "wheel" broadcast on video footage every third hour and fourth). This resulted in the dismissal of some of his staff, including supporting anchors such as Lyn Vaughn, David Goodnow and Bob Losure, all of whom have been Headline News for over 10 years.
1999 reformat
On June 15, 1999, the network underwent a complete visual change, including an updated ticker (now nicknamed "Superticker"), newsroom and new studio, and channel schedule division into four different day sections, to convey the Idea that, unlike CNN , which features long-term programs such as discussions and documentaries, Headline News never stops offering live coverage. The blocking dayparts each ran for six hours and made use of their own custom brand and color code (which extended to the introductory graph and segment): First Watch (from 6:00 am to 12:00 pm Eastern Time, yellow), Second Clock (12: 00-6: 00Ã, pm ET, colored red), Third Hour (6: 00, pm-12: 00Ã , ET, green), and Late Watch (12: 00-6: 00Ã, am ET, blue). Additional segments are also added before commercial breaks: Best Bet On... , which gives top choices in categories like movies (with information provided by the company's current publications Time Inc.) and Week-At-A-Glance , which provides a summary of the important events that took place that week. To promote change, two new slogans are introduced: Get-To-The-Point News and 24-Hour Non-Stop Headlines (most recently used in the bumper ident). 2001 relaunch
On August 6, 2001, CNN Headline News launched an on-air network format change, promoted with a new slogan, Real-time, very fast . The essence of the new format is the replacement of the network ticker with a large panel at the bottom of the screen, featuring headlines and other information (such as weather updates and sports news). The network also introduced new studios and multi-anchor formats, and announced plans to add more revolving live news coverage. The network characterizes new designs and formats in an attempt to attract younger viewers, citing the inspiration of the internet; Chicago Tribune notes that channel viewers have dropped, and are leaning toward audiences above 50, which most advertisers do not want.
Upon launching, the new format received mixed reviews, with critics claiming that the new screen format conveys too much information at once, distracting viewers from its main video programming. Critics also drew comparisons to financial news channels, as well as similar improvements in on-screen information announced by ESPNews. Steve Johnson of the Chicago Tribune explains that "the video section of Headline News' screen is split only occupying about a third of the total real estate.It set my 27 inch shrink, in fact, to be 14- incher when set to Headline News Do not care about old school problems to try to see hockey pockets, people with smaller devices watching sports here will have trouble finding basketball. "
Headline Prime , "News and Views"
In February 2005, the network launched a new primetime block known as Headline Prime ; the block is designed to display an opinion-based and personality-based program (in contrast to CNN's "heavy news" program), which Ken Jautz networking executives described as a shift from "news to view" and The New York Times compared to Fox News Channel. The launch line featured Initial Evening , Showbiz Tonight , daily entertainment news show hosted by AJ Hammer, and the latest program hosted by legal commentator Nancy Grace, featuring news and analysis on crime and court cases. In May 2006, Headline Prime added an eponymous program hosted by radio host of conservative talks Glenn Beck. Both Nancy Grace and Glenn Beck brought lead ratings to Headline News, especially in key demographics, although daytime programming saw little improvement. Exposed: The Extremist Agenda , Glenn Beck, which aired in November 2006, breaks up millions of viewers and is the most watched networking program of the year.
On December 15, 2008, simultaneously with a graphical change of CNN itself, which resembles a graphic of its channel, CNN International, Headline News replaced the flipper news ticker, featuring an RSS feed of the current headline on its web site network CNN.com. On the same day, a new square logo with triangular frills (making it resemble speech bubbles) lined by the acronym "HLN" was introduced, initially next to the channel's full name. Two days later, the name "Headline" was removed from air use with the HLN acronym being the full name of the channel, and a new slogan, "News and Views", was introduced
On March 28, 2011, HLN replaced its standard primary definition feed from full screen to 4: 3 letter format, which is a down conversion from a 16: 9 high definition feed; however, the video footage that is broadcast in the standard definition of the feed is not in a pillarbox (as with the CNN trunk, since its SD feed is routed from full-screen to letterbox in January 2011), leaving black bars on the right and left sides of the screen, at the top and bottom of the screen. However, Saturday Night Mysteries' HLN, which features the story version of TrueTV's crime story programming channel, is broadcasted in 4: 3 full screen on the HLN SD feed.
During the spring of 2011, HLN devoted a large number of broadcast days to the murder trial of Casey Anthony, dedicated several daily and primetime slots for live coverage of the process followed by comments during the night. The saturation coverage of the trial led to an increase in ratings for the network, including multipliers in regular viewing during the daytime hours and almost triple in primetime. HLN executive vice president Scot Safon called the trial "a big deal" for the network. HLN also devotes much time to Dr. Conrad Murray (who was accused of prescribing drugs that caused Michael Jackson's death) during the fall of 2011.
On July 18, 2011, CNN began offering HLN direct streams for mobile devices to customers of certain pay-TV services. On November 4, 2011, HLN launched its own website on hlntv.com. Unlike CNN.com, the site is run by HLN's own editorial staff, emphasizing the "must see and must share" story, and content binding into its television program.
In May 2012, HLN gained the rights to broadcast Daytime Emmy Awards, starting with the 39th annual event on June 23, 2012; this marks the first time the awards ceremony is broadcast on cable TV, not television broadcasts. With 912,000 viewers (excluding four recurring broadcasts, generating a total of up to two million), the broadcast is "the most-watched non-news regularly watched TV show ever" on the HLN.
Albie Hecht joins HLN as Executive Vice President and GM in September 2013. In November 2013, consumer advocate Clark Howard ended his five-year relationship with HLN, including his appearance on Morning Express with Robin Meade and Evening Express as well as its own weekend weekend program. The move was taken in response to planned changes taking place at HLN, which seeks to reposition the network as "the first TV house for the generation of social media."
Throughout the year 2014, HLN's news content began to gravitate toward the millennial generation, with an increased focus on popular content on social networking with major headlines. For one period, HLN also aired RightThisMinute , a syndication program focusing on viral videos. In June 2014, Time Warner attempted, but failed, to get a stake in Media Representative: Time Warner had planned to give the HLN Representative control so that it could relaunch the channel around its original content. The representative then partnered with A & amp; E Networks to launch its channel, Viceland, by 2016.
This plan peaked on January 13, 2015, when the HLN underwent major changes in programming and broadcast presentations; the network introduced several new social media-themed programs, including the new afternoon's block of The Daily Share Jack Vale: Offline - a doco after the YouTube comedian Jack Vale, Ali Nejad Social Life , and Keywords , a social media themed event hosted by Summer Sanders. HLN also adopted an updated logo, and introduced a new set in Studio 7 from CNN Center, used by Morning Express and The Daily Share. This new studio has a "coffee house" style design with no traditional anchor table, and a "Social Circle" designed to encourage interaction between the host and the guest. T-Mobile US also signed on to serve as a sponsor for The Daily Share, enabling on-set branding and sponsored segments during the program.
At the end of May 2015, The Daily Share was cut from five hours to two, with the rest of the timeslot filled by the original and special CNN series, followed by the next day's essay from Nancy Grace and < i> Dr. Drew On Call .
2016.E2.80.93present : Changes in strategy, actual crime program
On November 24, 2015, CNN Worldwide president Jeff Zucker announced, in a memo to network staff, that Hecht would leave HLN; Ken Jautz, who oversaw the network as president before Hecht's appointment in 2013, will lead the network for a while. The memo outlines plans to restructure its day and night programs to be more similar to CNN, including a focus on documentaries.
In June 2016, HLN announced that Erica Hill would rejoin the network to host a new daytime program from New York at the end of the year. Later that month, HLN also announced that Michaela Pereira, CNN's former anchor of New Day, will host a new morning show from the CNN Los Angeles news agency, known as MichaeLA , beginning on July 11, 2016. The new program is positioned as a sibling of Morning Express's premier morning HLN show, airing from 10:00 am to 1:00 pm. ET; the network emphasizes the promotion that Michaela will be the only nationally televised morning show broadcast live on the west coast (where it airs from 7:00 am to 10:00 am), contrast with other national. a morning show recorded from aeration for the east coast.
On June 30, 2016, Nancy Grace announced that she would end her show and leave HLN in October 2016, after nearly a decade with the network. It's being replaced by a new program, Primetime Justice with Ashleigh Banfield . Erica Hill's new program, On the Story , aired on October 10, 2016.
In January 2017, HLN announced the premiere of January 27th How It Really Happened , a new documentary series hosted by Hill Harper reported on "the most famous crime, mystery, trials and tragedy of celebrities today ". This series is the first production of CNN Original Development Team staff developed specifically for HLN. On January 30, 2017, it was announced that CNN host Carol Costello would return to HLN to host a new program from Los Angeles. In March 2017, HLN announced that S.E. Cupp will host the new start night program on HLN starting June 2017.
On May 8, 2017, HLN underwent a rebranding process, adopting a new logo and slogan, "News that hits at home". The network will position its news content to regional headlines, crime, and entertainment stories - leaving CNN to focus on "deep" political coverage and world affairs. In January 2018, HLN began reintroducing Headline News brands during the news program (although HLN remains the network's main name), and also introducing Headline Now - a recap of the headlines that aired every half hour during the noon lineup day.

Distribution
Due to the rolling news channel's rolling news tradition, HLN has become popular with people who may not have the time to watch long news reports, and as quick news sources for public locations like airports, bars and many other places. Supermarkets carrying the discontinued CNN Checkout Channel service are offered feed Headline News for broadcast on television.
From the beginning, many television stations broadcasted in various markets brought the Main News program over an overnight hour in lieu of signing (mainly because the station began to adopt a 24-hour program schedule during the late 1980s and 1990s), or movie scheduling, infomercials, or other syndication programs to fill in overnight. Beginning in the early 1990s, when NBC, ABC and CBS launched their own overnight news programs ( NBC Nightside , World News Now and Up To This Minute >, respectively), network affiliate stations running channel programming - typically broadcast within a half hour or long-hour block - continue to broadcast the News Release as a complement to this program and also to provide news programs over a period of time over the weekend when the network is not providing Saturday and/or Sunday editions of their evening newscasts.
Until 1995, many of the Main News programs were broadcast on CNN International's sister channels; news ticker channels are not displayed on CNN International during the simulcast of the Headline News program. Audio channel programs are also broadcast on AM radio stations across the country via Westwood One; all US CNN radio operations (including HLN broadcasts) were discontinued on 1 April 2012 as part of Westwood One's disbandment to Dial Global. Audio feedback is also done on XM Satellite Radio channel 123 and Sirius Satellite Radio channel 116.
