Previous Incarnations

CNN International's main newscast brand for much of the 1990s was simply called "World News". In the late 1990s, the network introduced two editions of "CNN This Morning". The first edition was broadcast from their studio in Hong Kong, and the second edition was broadcast from their production centre in London. Both editions were intended to be morning programmes for Asia and Europe, respectively.

After a revamp of CNN International in 2001, the programme was split into two and was renamed. The Asian programme was named "NewsBiz Today", anchored by Kristie Lu Stout and Stan Grant in Hong Kong, while the European programme was named "BizNews", and was anchored by Hala Gorani and Richard Quest in London.

CNN International underwent another revamp in 2004. In March of that year, "NewsBiz Today" and "BizNews" were both renamed to "CNN Today".

Famous quotes containing the word previous:

    I will frankly declare, that after passing a few weeks in this valley of the Marquesas, I formed a higher estimate of human nature than I had ever before entertained. But alas! since then I have been one of the crew of a man-of-war, and the pent-up wickedness of five hundred men has nearly overturned all my previous theories.
    Herman Melville (1819–1891)
