(named on-air as Newsroom Live to avoid confusion with the locally based newscast) every Monday from 6am to 8am and on weekends from 8am to 10am GMT.
CNN International's main newscast brand for much of the 1990s was simply called World News.
The Asian programme was named NewsBiz Today, anchored by Kristie Lu Stout and Stan Grant in Hong Kong, while the European programme was named BizNews, and was anchored by Hala Gorani and Richard Quest in London.
The second segment in the Asian edition takes a look at business headlines and introduces the first of 3 weather updates.
The European edition has its first weather update before the 1st break and continues with major news reports on the 2nd segment.
At the bottom of the hour, world news headlines are recapped before going to more in-depth coverage of current issues.
Like the Asian edition, sports stories and the business traveler's weather advisory are presented before the top of the hour.
[1] Hugh Riminton, another Australian, was hired to anchor the Asian edition with Kristie Lu Stout.
Anna Coren was hired from Seven Network in December 2008, and began presenting the third hour of the programme.
On a related note, Hugh Riminton left CNN after four years with the channel and returned to Canberra, Australia to become the chief political correspondent for Network Ten.
Sasha Herrimen presented a lighter story a few times throughout the programme and often provides a look at the front pages of London's newspapers.
The sport update was shown on the show, and later the morning (Asia/European Time) World Business Today anchored by Charles Hodson and Andrew Stevens appeared.
However, as CNN International's schedule evolved, these airtimes were reduced to weekend editions, and two separate three-hour morning blocks for Asian and European audiences.
The Asian morning edition of World Report was rebranded as CNN Newsroom in November 2012, to coincide with the revamp of CNN's Hong Kong studio, and the introduction of a new anchor team of Andrew Stevens and Patricia Wu.
[8] At 1:00 pm weekdays BST, Max Foster hosts a 30-minute edition of CNN Newsroom aimed as a prime-time show for Asia-Pacific, Kristie Lu Stout and Christina MacFarlane are relief anchors.
[9] Due to the coronavirus pandemic, CNN Newsroom had modified hours airing from 6:00-10:00 a.m. CET.
[24][25] At 5:10 a.m. EST, CNN reported that Shinzo Abe had died from the bullet wounds that hit his heart and had a team of 20 doctors who were working to save his life and had been assassinated.
On September 8, 2022, CNN International began simulcasting CNN/US's Breaking News from London as Queen Elizabeth II had died at the age of 96.
On November 3, 2014,[27] instead of October 20, as first reported,[28] the Asian morning block was rebranded to the second iteration of CNN Today anchored by Michael Holmes and Amara Walker at the network's headquarters in Atlanta.
