As we know, historic events are happening around us everyday, from local news right in your back yard to news and life changing events over the other side of the world. There are various types of news channels available to us, from local to world news, also different genres of news focusing on different genres of life, sport, music, politics, these are just some examples of a wide range of different news broadcasts.
Also the way in which we broadcast our news has changed over the past 20 years, now you can find a wide range of different formalities of news channels, mainly to suit the purpose of what it is addressing, and the audience it is trying to attract, we have moved away from the stereotypical news broadcaster wearing a dull black suit listing events in formal order to a new more dynamic modern broadcast, now u can find news on the radio, consistently broadcast every hour or so, but as we move further in to a century of diverse technology often based around the web, the news has become more easy and accessible on the web, as many news channels, use links, pod casts, pictures, and other media sources to create more hits for there channel and increase popularity.
Here are some different examples of news channels:
