In general I would say CNNI weekends have much more news now than in years.
Typically, CNNI weekends used to have 30 or even 15 min of news on the top of the hour, followed by feature shows (basically infomercials).
I'm gonna say those are far fewer now, in favor of more full hours of news.
I kinda enjoy the simulcasts, and I know a lot of people do like the mix of domestic and international news.
