History

CNN was founded in 1980 by Ted Turner and was successful. In the following years, an offshoot was developed, which went on the air as CNN2 on 1 January 1982. The concept of CNN2 it was to summarize the news of the day in 30 - minute blocks, so that viewers could turn at any time and were informed at this time fully aware of the latest news from politics, sports, business and entertainment. A year after the first broadcast CNN2 was renamed CNN Headline News. In the late 1990s the live broadcast program has been replaced by pre-recorded elements, so that a large part of the workforce could be saved.

In 2005, the program has been extensively remodeled. The continuous news reporting has been replaced by evening moderated shipments partially. This led to a rise in the ratings, so in addition shows like Showbiz Tonight, Nancy Grace show the court that were taken Glenn Beck show and repetitions of CNN's Larry King Live in the program. The focus of the transmitter aimed at "light" topics such as celebrity coverage and interactive call-in shows. On 15 December 2008, finally, the current HLN logo and the slogan " News and Views " was introduced and dropped the previous station name Headline News in the on -air design.
