CNN Pipeline was an English language video news service providing both live and on-demand video to subscribers' computers via broadband Internet connections. It was part of the CNN group of news services. The service was subscription-based, and did not contain advertising like other CNN stations. The bandwidth , storage and streaming servers was provided by AOL , which is also owned by Time Warner . Each of the feeds broadcast in the 16:9 aspect ratio , however the resolution of the broadcast prohibited it from being considered a high definition channel, and in many cases not even SDTV .
101-516: Pipeline was made available to the public on December 5, 2005, after years of planning and months of internal testing. It had replaced portions of CNN Interactive and the CNN.com website, placing that content in the subscription service. On June 27, 2007, CNN discontinued the CNN Pipeline service, to be succeeded by a free ad-supported live-video stream starting on July 2. If the stand-alone Windows program

The redesign also replaced the scrolling ticker with a static "flipper", which could either display a feed of news headlines (both manually inserted and taken from
2323-508: A second was selected to correspond exactly to the length of the ephemeris second previously defined. Atomic clocks use such a frequency to measure seconds by counting cycles per second at that frequency. Radiation of this kind is one of the most stable and reproducible phenomena of nature. The current generation of atomic clocks is accurate to within one second in a few hundred million years. Since 1967, atomic clocks based on atoms other than caesium-133 have been developed with increased precision by

5353-502: The Sun (a year) was much more stable than Earth's rotation. This led to proposals as early as 1950 to define the second as a fraction of a year. The Earth's motion was described in Newcomb's Tables of the Sun (1895), which provided a formula for estimating the motion of the Sun relative to the epoch 1900 based on astronomical observations made between 1750 and 1892. This resulted in adoption of an ephemeris time scale expressed in units of

6868-499: The first pendulum clock. It had a pendulum length of just under a meter, giving it a swing of one second, and an escapement that ticked every second. It was the first clock that could accurately keep time in seconds. By the 1730s, 80 years later, John Harrison 's maritime chronometers could keep time accurate to within one second in 100 days. In 1832, Gauss proposed using the second as the base unit of time in his millimeter–milligram–second system of units . The British Association for
6969-458: The footnote was added at the 86th (1997) meeting of the CIPM GCPM 1998 7th Edition SI Brochure A future re-definition of the second would be justified if these idealized conditions can be achieved much easier than with the current definition. The definition of the second should be understood as the definition of the unit of proper time: it applies in a small spatial domain that shares the motion of
7070-496: The highest ratings of any CNN original series premiere to-date, with 1.7 million viewers. Parts Unknown concluded after the 2018 suicide of its host Anthony Bourdain ; CNN announced several new miniseries and docuseries for 2019, including American Style (a miniseries produced by the digital media company Vox Media ), The Redemption Project with Van Jones , Chasing Life with Sanjay Gupta , Tricky Dick (a miniseries chronicling Richard Nixon ), The Movies (a spin-off of
7171-596: The hour like the modern second (= hour / 60×60 ). Sundials and water clocks were among the earliest timekeeping devices, and units of time were measured in degrees of arc. Conceptual units of time smaller than realisable on sundials were also used. There are references to "second" as part of a lunar month in the writings of natural philosophers of the Middle Ages, which were mathematical subdivisions that could not be measured mechanically. The earliest mechanical clocks, which appeared starting in
7272-645: The husband and wife team of David Walker and Lois Hart anchored the channel's first newscast. Burt Reinhardt , the executive vice president of CNN, hired most of the channel's first 200 employees, including the network's first news anchor , former ABC News Capitol Hill senior correspondent Bernard Shaw . Since its debut, CNN has expanded its reach to several cable and satellite television providers, websites, and specialized closed-circuit channels (such as CNN Airport ). The company has 42 bureaus (12 domestic, 31 international), more than 900 affiliated local stations (which also receive news and features content via
7373-456: The impending attack. The company was honored at the 2008 Technology & Engineering Emmy Awards for development and implementation of an integrated and portable IP-based live, edit and store-and-forward digital news gathering (DNG) system. The first use of what would later win CNN this award was in April 2001 when CNN correspondent Lisa Rose Weaver covered, and was detained, for the release of
7474-408: The local gravitational field. The reference to an unperturbed atom is intended to make it clear that the definition of the SI second is based on an isolated caesium atom that is unperturbed by any external field, such as ambient black-body radiation. The second, so defined, is the unit of proper time in the sense of the general theory of relativity. To allow the provision of a coordinated time scale,
7575-431: The microwave frequency of a caesium atomic clock, which have each realized a sexagesimal division of the day from ancient astronomical calendars. Civilizations in the classic period and earlier created divisions of the calendar as well as arcs using a sexagesimal system of counting, so at that time the second was a sexagesimal subdivision of the day (ancient second = day / 60×60 ), not of
7676-913: The network's rolling news block on weekdays, with its morning edition from 9 a.m. to noon ET anchored by John Berman , Kate Bolduan , and Sara Sidner , and its afternoon edition from 1–4 p.m. ET anchored by Brianna Keilar and Boris Sanchez. In the noon hour is Inside Politics , hosted by Dana Bash . CNN's late afternoon and early evening lineup consists of The Lead with Jake Tapper at 4–5 p.m. ET and The Situation Room with Wolf Blitzer at 5–7 p.m. ET. The network's evening and prime time lineup shifts towards more in-depth programming, including Erin Burnett OutFront at 7 p.m. ET, Anderson Cooper 360° at 8 p.m. ET, and The Source with Kaitlan Collins at 9 p.m. ET. The 10 p.m. and 11 p.m. hours are filled by CNN Newsnight with Abby Phillip and Laura Coates Live respectively. From November 2023,
7777-450: The network, the "flipper" was dropped and reverted to a scrolling ticker. On August 11, 2014, CNN introduced a new graphics package, dropping the glossy appearance for a flat, rectangular scheme incorporating red, white, and black colors, and the Gotham typeface. The ticker alternated between general headlines and financial news from CNN Business , and the secondary logo box was replaced with
7878-476: The popular video-sharing site YouTube , but those videos can only be viewed in the United States, a source of criticism among YouTube users worldwide. In 2014, CNN launched a radio version of their television programming on TuneIn Radio. On March 7, 2017, CNN announced the official launch of its virtual reality unit named CNNVR. It will produce 360 videos to its Android and iOS apps within CNN Digital. It
7979-502: The prior graphics began to be reinstated later that month, including the bolder typography previously used for lower third headlines. Further changes were made on August 14, 2023, with the return of the scrolling ticker and the show title box to make it closer resemble the 2014–23 graphics, but maintaining most of the other visual changes. On June 27, 2024, CNN hosted the first presidential debate for former President Donald Trump and President Joe Biden. CNN claimed that more people watched
8080-553: The realization of the second based on the Cs hyperfine transition frequency, but some can be reproduced with superior stability. SI Brochure 9 In 2022, the best realisation of the second is done with caesium primary standard clocks such as IT-CsF2, NIST-F2, NPL-CsF2, PTB-CSF2, SU–CsFO2 or SYRTE-FO2. These clocks work by laser-cooling a cloud of Cs atoms to a microkelvin in a magneto-optic trap. These cold atoms are then launched vertically by laser light. The atoms then undergo Ramsey excitation in
8181-469: The rotation of the Earth with respect to the Sun, and does not contain any leap seconds. UT1 always differs from UTC by less than a second. While they are not yet part of any timekeeping standard, optical lattice clocks with frequencies in the visible light spectrum now exist and are the most accurate timekeepers of all. A strontium clock with frequency 430 THz , in the red range of visible light, during
8282-409: The rotation of the Earth. The international standard for timekeeping is Coordinated Universal Time (UTC). This time scale "ticks" the same atomic seconds as TAI, but inserts or omits leap seconds as necessary to correct for variations in the rate of rotation of the Earth. A time scale in which the seconds are not exactly equal to atomic seconds is UT1, a form of universal time . UT1 is defined by
8383-412: The second as 1 ⁄ 86,400 of a mean solar day. Sometime in the late 1940s, quartz crystal oscillator clocks with an operating frequency of ~100 kHz advanced to keep time with accuracy better than 1 part in 10 over an operating period of a day. It became apparent that a consensus of such clocks kept better time than the rotation of the Earth. Metrologists also knew that Earth's orbit around
8484-461: The second such as kiloseconds (thousands of seconds), such units are rarely used in practice. An everyday experience with small fractions of a second is a 1-gigahertz microprocessor that has a cycle time of 1 nanosecond. Camera shutter speeds are often expressed in fractions of a second, such as 1 ⁄ 30 second or 1 ⁄ 1000 second. Sexagesimal divisions of the day from a calendar based on astronomical observation have existed since
8585-424: The signals of different primary clocks in different locations are combined, which have to be corrected for relativistic caesium frequency shifts (see section 2.3.6). The CIPM has adopted various secondary representations of the second, based on a selected number of spectral lines of atoms, ions or molecules. The unperturbed frequencies of these lines can be determined with a relative uncertainty not lower than that of
8686-418: The standard today. A mechanical clock, which does not depend on measuring the relative rotational position of the Earth, keeps uniform time called mean time , within whatever accuracy is intrinsic to it. That means that every second, minute and every other division of time counted by the clock has the same duration as any other identical division of time. But a sundial , which measures the relative position of
8787-403: The third millennium BC, though they were not seconds as we know them today. Small divisions of time could not be measured back then, so such divisions were mathematically derived. The first timekeepers that could count seconds accurately were pendulum clocks invented in the 17th century. Starting in the 1950s, atomic clocks became better timekeepers than Earth's rotation, and they continue to set
8888-407: The unperturbed ground-state hyperfine transition frequency of the caesium 133 atom, to be 9 192 631 770 when expressed in the unit Hz , which is equal to s . This current definition was adopted in 1967 when it became feasible to define the second based on fundamental properties of nature with caesium clocks . Because the speed of Earth's rotation varies and is slowing ever so slightly ,
8989-610: The video newswire service CNN Newsource), and several regional and foreign-language networks around the world. The channel's success made a bona-fide mogul of founder Ted Turner and set the stage for conglomerate Time Warner 's (later WarnerMedia which merged with Discovery Inc. forming Warner Bros. Discovery ) eventual acquisition of the Turner Broadcasting System in 1996. CNN's current weekday schedule consists mostly of rolling news programming during daytime hours, followed by in-depth news and information programs with

On Saturdays, First of All with Victor Blackwell airs at 8 a.m. ET, followed by Smerconish with Michael Smerconish at 9 a.m. ET, The Chris Wallace Show at 10 a.m. ET and The Amanpour Hour with Christine Amanpour at 11 a.m. ET. The Sunday morning lineup consists primarily of political talk shows , starting with State of
9191-402: The world, and were chosen by Pipeline's producers. Graphics of headlines, stock market indexes, and sports headlines took the place of advertisements during the main news program, and also when an advertisement appeared on CNN International when being simulcasted on the service. Contractual obligations prohibited the direct simulcasting of CNN's American news channels, "CNN" and " HLN " (unless
9292-512: Was announced that Chris Licht —known for his work at MSNBC and CBS—would be the next president of CNN; he was planned to be instated after the spin off and merger of WarnerMedia into Discovery Inc. Licht started his tenure in May 2022, and his tenure ended in June 2023. In August 2023, it announced Mark Thompson , formerly of The New York Times , as its next CEO. In one of his first major moves, he kept
9393-490: Was asked to resign by Jason Kilar , the chief executive of CNN's owner WarnerMedia, after Zucker's relationship with one of his lieutenants was discovered during the investigation into former CNN primetime host Chris Cuomo 's efforts to control potentially damaging reporting regarding his brother Andrew Cuomo , governor of New York. Kilar announced that the interim co-heads would be executive vice presidents Michael Bass, Amy Entelis , and Ken Jautz . On February 26, 2022, it
9494-479: Was available to users of PCs running Microsoft Windows . There was also a browser-based "web client" that did not require installation. The service was discontinued in July 2007, and was replaced with a free streaming service. On April 18, 2008, CNN.com was targeted by Chinese hackers in retaliation for the channel's coverage on the 2008 Tibetan unrest . CNN reported that they took preventive measures after news broke of
9595-432: Was based in the United States and its programming is heavily aimed towards American viewers, users in 40 other countries were able to subscribe to the service and view Pipeline content. CNN Interactive Cable News Network ( CNN ) is a multinational news channel and website operating from Midtown Atlanta , Georgia, U.S. Founded in 1980 by American media proprietor Ted Turner and Reese Schonfeld as
9696-460: Was broadcast on weekdays from 8:00 AM - 8:00 PM and weekends from 1:00 - 2:00 AM (both times Eastern Time). The news program periodically simulcasted either CNN International North America's feed, or CNN U.S. during breaking news events. Because of the compression required, CNN Pipeline could not be considered a live broadcast - however, the delay was usually in seconds . CNN Pipeline offered three levels of subscriptions: While CNN Pipeline
9797-475: Was cutting one hundred jobs, or about 3% of its total workforce. The company also announced that it was consolidating three newsrooms into one, namely, its U.S. news gathering, international news gathering and digital news gathering operations. CNN's global workforce, in July 2024, included roughly 3,500 people. CNN launched its website, CNN.com (initially known as CNN Interactive ), on August 30, 1995. The site attracted growing interest over its first decade and
9898-406: Was intended to shift CNN away from a reliance on pundit -oriented programs, and attract younger demographics to the network. Zucker stated that the 9:00 p.m. hour could be pre-empted during major news events for expanded coverage. These changes coincided with the introduction of a new imaging campaign for the network, featuring the slogan "Go there". In May 2014, CNN premiered The Sixties ,
9999-454: Was not made clear in advertisements for the service, so some American or Canadian users expecting online access to CNN and Headline News , to which they were accustomed, were disappointed. Pipes was also used for special events as well. On September 11, 2006, the fifth anniversary of the September 11, 2001 attacks , CNN Pipeline carried a real-time rebroadcast of CNN's then-live coverage of
10100-486: Was opened after June 27, CNN initiated an automatic uninstallation of the software from the subscriber's hard drive. CNN said that while it would continue to provide the four live video streams and video archives, it was abandoning the subscription model. According to CNN's blog , the reason they discontinued the service was to encourage a greater number of people to use the service. They stated they were not actually getting rid of Pipeline, or any of its features (other than
10201-401: Was the only generally accepted standard. Fractions of a second are usually denoted in decimal notation, for example 2.01 seconds, or two and one hundredth seconds. Multiples of seconds are usually expressed as minutes and seconds, or hours, minutes and seconds of clock time, separated by colons, such as 11:23:24, or 45:23 (the latter notation can give rise to ambiguity, because the same notation
