Living up to their stereotypes. The BBC is timid and thinks foreigners might be getting too much of their domestic news while CNN thinks foreigners don't get enough of theirs.
If archive.org transcripts are to be believed, the answer is ZERO. Nothing. Rien. For seven hours straight. (Yes, they had it on their web site, but not on air.)
