Definition

  • Cable Television started the multichannel revolution that, with the introduction of CNN in 1980, transformed television news from a nightly half hour to the perpetually present and highly competitive realm of cable news. However, that was a much later culmination of a history of policy and technological changes. [Source: Encyclopedia of Journalism; Cable Television]
