CNN en Español (stylized as CN͠N) is a Pan-American Spanish-language news channel, owned by WarnerMedia. It was launched on pay television, on 17 March 1997.

Availability[edit]

CNN en Español is available throughout Hispanic America and the United States.[1] In Canada, a number of the network's shows are simulcast on Univision Canada.[2]

On February 15, 2017, the National Telecommunications Commission of Venezuela banned CNN en Español from the airwaves in the country after the airing of a report accusing the country of passport fraud. The government deemed the report "(A threat to) the peace and democratic stability of our Venezuelan people since they generate an environment of intolerance."[3] On April 30, 2019, CNNI (and BBC World News as well) are also blocked due to their extensive live coverage of the country's uprisings. Both events combined causing a minor speculation on Venezuelan press censorship.

Programming[edit]

Live coverage[edit]

CNN en Español provides live coverage of some news events, and since 2016, has carried the Spanish-language audio (though the video remains the regular English presentation) for Major League Baseball postseason games carried by sister network TBS only in the United States.[4] CNN en Español features newscasts throughout the day.

Mexico programming[edit]

In March 1999, CNN en Español launched an independent feed for Mexico. This exclusive signal of CNN en Español airs Perspectivas, a primetime newscast dedicated to covering important local, domestic and international events of special significance to Mexican viewers. CNN en Español’s Mexico feed also features InfoCinta CNN, an electronic ticker located at the bottom of the screen containing news headlines, sports, financial and weather information.[5]
