Too many repeats!

by kssands , Jan 19 '00
Pros: quality stories

CNN Headline News - Too curt for me

by skyrydr Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500, Nov 07 '00
Pros: Quick recap of what is going on in the world
Cons: Fast repeat rate and no smiling anchors
CNNHeadline News is newsworthy and able to convey what is going on in the world. However, their method of presenting the news is curt and almost too sharp for me. They seem to have little emotion regardless of what they convey. Watch their anchors and...

Get Your Intelligence Updates Here!

by demon , Oct 11 '99
Pros: Up to the minute reporting.
Cons: Any reporting that, that Crawley woman does on New York City!
If you ever wondered how the CIA gets its up to the minute information, then you need to watch Headline News for about a half hour. CNN seems to have gone out of its way to place reporters (spys essentially) in every country around the globe...

CNN Headline News Is an Abstract of CNN

by neomartin , Aug 25 '01
Pros: Many segments; stock and sports tickers; 30-minute editions
Cons: Continuously repeated viewing can make one stir crazy-- best viewed periodically
CNN Headline News is news from CNN provided in brief and in a summary format. CNN gives news in depth, so it devotes more time to stories. This is the major difference between parent CNN and child CNN Headline News. Don't expect CNN Headline News to...

Can't go wrong here

by Loring , Oct 25 '99
Pros: Short & To-the-point stories, CNN resources, predictable schedule, no fluff
Cons: Not a substitute for the Times or the Post
Ladies and gentlemen, I have found the perfect news channel. That is, the channel that will tell you everything that you need to know about what has happened in the last ten hours in 30 minutes.

Headline news offers you perfectly encapsulated...

It goes along with A.D.D.

by seriouskidding , Apr 16 '00
Pros: Same format, consistent delivery and content
Cons: shallow coverage
Headline News can always be counted on to fill the void in television programming. So many channels, so little to watch. We have all been so conditioned to experience life in 30-second-maximum segments, Headline News only makes sense (I think we all...

News in a Convenient Coated Pill Form

by dperry9 , Jan 11 '00
Pros: A never ending flow of soundbyte news, plus some color stories
Cons: Very brief sports and weather, not much fleshing-out of stories
CNN's "Headline News" is an entire channel devoted to the "Joe Friday" approach to news: just basic, up-to-the-minute coverage that cycles continuously through the day and night (a little like a 24 hr. video version of the front page...

A Great Concept

by kam61799 , Jun 15 '00
Pros: News in nice bite sized portions ready for you when your ready for it
Cons: None
Headlines all the time, nothing else, really? It would take someone like Ted Turner to okay an idea like that. But, boy has it payed off! Being able to flip onto Headline news at any time (day or night) and get the the "full days news in half an...

GO Back to the OLD Format

by ahussain176 , Aug 14 '01
Pros: fast news
Cons: new format, new reporters, new set
Headline News was an excellent news channel to view prior to the changes they made to their format in August of 2001. The old format featured crucial news stories in the first 10 minutes of the 30 minute news blocks they repeatedly role. The second 10...

Global News in 30 minutes

Pros: Informative, Fast, Interesting Stories
Cons: Repetitive, dry, no analysis
I started watching CNN headline news every day since 2001, and ever since I have been much more informed in news and events around the globe. There is only one show, but there are 6 pairs of anchors that restate the news every few hours. Chuck and...
