Advantages: Quality news provided by one of the world's leading news networks

Disadvantages: Will it survive with so many other news channels out there?

Yes it's true, after much speculation and rumours, ITN have now launched their very own news channel, not content with theri ITV, Ch4 and Ch5 coverage. But unlike rivals like BBC NEWS 24 and EURO NEWS, the marketing geniuses at ITN have came up with the ultimate name for the channel, one that will surely stand out from the others.... The ITN News Channel. Wow.

The main difference that it DOES have against competitiors, is that it shows news and news only. No interview programmes or documentaries, just news repeated every 15 minutes. The channel's presented by the faces you'll be familiar with from the ITN news on ITV, but who have now strangly disapeared... no doubt wher they've gone then. The graphics are similar to the blue style of the old news on ITV too, but where the provders ITN have now changed to "ITV Nigthly News" etc..

You can get the ITN News Channel on satellite abd cable, NTl us a joint owner of channe land indeed provide some useful interactive services. But the channel's only available between 5:30am and 9am on ONdigital, this is likely to go 24 hours soon.
