The All-Nippon News Network is the news network of TV Asahi and its affiliated commercial stations across Japan, established in 1970. TV Asahi, headquartered at Roppongi Hills in Tokyo, is the key station. Regional members such as ABC in Osaka report on their own areas and feed stories to national newscasts.
What runs on the live stream?
The stream carries ANN's breaking news as it happens. Typical items include press conferences from the Prime Minister's Office and government ministries, statements by party leaders, court rulings, and live pictures from accidents or fires. When the Japan Meteorological Agency issues earthquake or tsunami warnings, the coverage shifts to official updates and reports from affected areas, which makes the feed a practical way to follow a developing situation in Japan.
Unlike NHK, Japan's public broadcaster, the ANN stations are commercial broadcasters funded by advertising. TV Asahi's nightly newscast Hodo Station is the network's flagship news program.
Coverage is in Japanese. Programs follow Japan Standard Time (UTC+9), which does not change during the year.
