This question is about CNN.
Who owns CNN?
CNN Global and Warner Bros. Discovery own CNN. CNN was founded in 1980 by Ted Turner and Reese Schonfeld as a 24-hour cable news channel. Upon its launch in 1980, it was the first television channel to provide 24-hour news coverage and the first all-news television channel in the United States.
Since its debut, CNN has expanded its reach to several cable and satellite television providers, websites, and specialized closed-circuit channels. The company has 42 bureaus (11 domestic and 31 international), more than 900 affiliated local stations, and several regional and foreign-language networks around the world.
CNN is headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia, and set the stage for conglomerate Time Warner's eventual acquisition of the Turner Broadcasting System in 1996.
The company is multinational and, as of September 2018, had 90.1 million television households as subscribers. In June 2021, CNN ranked third in viewership among cable news networks averaging 580,000 viewers throughout the day.
CNN programming has aired globally through CNN International and is seen by viewers in over 212 countries and territories. In 2021, CNN had annual revenue of $1.7 billion with over 4,000 employees working for the company.
