Next week, when business professionals subscribing to AT&T's Interchange on-line service turn to their computers for up-to-date information, they will have two familiar choices in financial news providers. In one corner of the screen will be the logo for CNN Interactive, the new digital version of the Cable News Network. In the other corner will be one for the Dow Jones Business Center, from the publisher of Barron's and The Wall Street Journal. CNN Interactive said last week that it had reached a long-term agreement to deliver multimedia business news on the AT&T Business Network, which is scheduled to begin Oct. 30 as part of the AT&T Interchange Online Network, a new competitor to services like Compuserve and America Online. CNN, a unit of Turner Broadcasting System, will also provide the AT&T service with content from the CNN Financial Network, a new business program scheduled to begin broadcasting in late December. And CNN hopes to eventually create new types of business news reports exclusively for AT&T, and to deliver them directly to computers, telephones, televisions or interactive pagers.

CNN Rejects an Ad
Date: 24 October 1995
Cable News Network and its owner, Turner Broadcasting, support the House and Senate telecommunications bills. AT&T opposes the bills. AT&T, along with other long-distance telephone companies, wanted to voice its opposition by paying CNN to run commercials. CNN said no, in part because the ads posed a "conflict of interest." That will not cause grievous harm to the public. After all, Turner Broadcasting is only one of many media companies -- including newspapers, radio stations, television stations and phone companies -- that service communities and can carry advocacy messages. Yet the incident exposes a large danger to the free flow of information that is posed by the very telecommunications bills that AT&T's ads were designed to defeat.

A volunteer staff member at The Elizabeth Reporter, who was arrested on Friday after he took photographs of a mugging victim at City Hall, is scheduled to appear in Municipal Court today on charges of obstructing justice and resisting arrest.
