n-tv is a German television news channel owned in equal shares by the RTL Group and Time Warner, operator of the CNN channel which operates worldwide.
n-tv screens news bulletins on the hour and half hour; in between, it broadcasts informational programmes and advertising.
On March 18, 2004, it announced that a new digital broadcast centre will be housed in Cologne. The political reports will, according to the announcement, come from Berlin as before. Similarly, stock market updates will come from Frankfurt am Main (Germany's financial capital and home of the main share index, the DAX). This was decided by the RTL and Time Warner companies at a meeting of the board of directors.
