Turner Broadcasting System Europe

Turner Broadcasting System Europe (a subsidiary of Turner Broadcasting System Inc. which is owned by Time Warner Inc.) provides an international news channel, movie channels and kid's channels in the UK. The TCM movie channel was one of the earliest to be made available on UK pay platforms and their cartoon orientated kid's brand, Cartoon Network, was also one of the first of its type broadcast in the country as well, facilitated by the joint ownership of the Hanna-Barbera studios.

CNN (founded by media mogul Ted Turner in June 1980 as a U.S. domestic service) is one of the leading news channels in the world. CNN International started broadcasting in Sept 1985 principally to American travellers in hotels. In 1990 CNN started to ramp up their international news programming and in 1994 they built a major news room and complex in order to compete with the BBC's World Service television news.
