cable news
Round-the-clock broadcasts
Cable news is television news programming delivered via cable networks rather than traditional broadcast channels, typically featuring continuous 24-hour coverage.
The format emphasizes breaking news, political commentary, and panel discussions.
Cable news covered the election results through the night.
The term often carries connotations of partisan opinion programming as much as straight journalism.
