SABC launches international news channel

Posted by Paul • Sunday, July 22. 2007 • Category: satellite tv, terrestrial tv
The South African Broadcasting Corportation today launched their new international news television station, SABC News International. The station will broadcast English and French news, from an African perspective, twenty-fours hours a day and is intended to compete on the same ground as BBC World and CNN.

It is currently available on the Intelsat 10, via Sentech's Vivid platform, which covers sub-Saharan Africa and parts of Europe. The station's schedule is here.

The station's website claims to have live internet streaming, however all we could find were recorded news broadcasts, in RealVideo format.
