Users of the iPhone can enjoy both the Chinese and English television broadcasts of China’s Xinhua News Agency as from yesterday. After downloading an application from Apple’s app store, iPhone users will be able to watch the two channels’ round-the-clock news programs through both wifi and 3G networks, said Wu Jincai, chairman of China Xinhua News Network Corporation (CNC), the TV arm of Xinhua News Agency. Users of the iPod and iTouch can also access the same service.
CNC began broadcasting in January and its English channel, CNC World, began satellite and cable broadcasts in July. “We hope to provide another perspective for global audiences to learn about news events,” Mr Wu said.
