Newshour gives you the latest news from around the globe. It explains why events are happening and what impact they will have on the world . It tries to make sense of what is going on without implying any world view on the audience. Newshour has been the BBC World Service’s flagship news programme since its launch in 1988, and has expanded to several editions every day of the week, every week of the year.
The programme provides a mixture of reporting from the BBC’s global network of correspondents, analysis from the world’s best most informed commentators - including the BBC’s own. Prominent politicians, diplomats, and businessmen are among thhe common hosts.
Newshour has reported on the end of communism in eastern Europe and the collapse of the Soviet Union, the Iraqi invasion of Kuwait and the first Gulf War, the al Qaeda attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon on September 11 2001, and the subsequent wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. Newshour aims to get under the surface of the story and give a better understanding of what the headlines mean.
For BBC Newshour, listeners in Turkey may tune in NTV Radyo at 102.7 ever day at 11 pm.
