Television
On television, NOS Journaal bulletins can be seen on channels of the Netherlands Public Broadcasting, the Dutch public broadcaster. Its flagship 25-minute bulletin airs at 8:00pm every night on Nederland 1 - the most watched news programme in the Netherlands, with an audience of around 1.5 to two million viewers daily (around a fifth of the market share around that hour).
On weekdays, short daytime bulletins are broadcast every hour between 7am and 5pm on Nederland 1 with hourly repeats on Nederland 2 and the digital TV channel NOS Journaal 24. Extended bulletins air at 1pm, 6pm and 10pm with a late night bulletin also broadcast at around midnight. Fewer daytime bulletins are broadcast during the weekend.
The nightly 8pm programme along with weekday daytime and weekend late night bulletins are also simulcast (usually on a time delay) with the Dutch language international television station BVN.

Famous quotes containing the word television:
“Photographs may be more memorable than moving images because they are a neat slice of time, not a flow. Television is a stream of underselected images, each of which cancels its predecessor. Each still photograph is a privileged moment, turned into a slim object that one can keep and look at again.”
—Susan Sontag (b. 1933)
“Laughter on American television has taken the place of the chorus in Greek tragedy.... In other countries, the business of laughing is left to the viewers. Here, their laughter is put on the screen, integrated into the show. It is the screen that is laughing and having a good time. You are simply left alone with your consternation.”
—Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)
“... there is no reason to confuse television news with journalism.”
—Nora Ephron (b. 1941)
