and they were riveting enough to propel cnn , for the first time , well into the ranks of the big three networks in the ratings race .


Question: who owns cnn ?

national ratings to be released today may well show that cnn beat out the no. 3 network , cbs , in prime-time ratings for its coverage wednesday night -- even though cnn covers only 60 % of the country , while cbs , abc and nbc reach nearly all homes .


Question: who owns cnn ?

cnn 's early advantage was all but wiped out yesterday , when the iraqi government ordered cnn to stop its live broadcasts from baghdad .

still , cnn 's jerusalem bureau turned in a strong performance last night during iraq 's missile assault on israel , staying on the air throughout the attack .

cnn has established itself as the broadcast wire service : the network to turn to for the most up-to-date news during moments of crisis .

`` this is the chance for cnn to become even-up with the big three .


Question: who owns cnn ?

if people hear cnn was the place to be at a critical moment in history , they 're going to start watching . ''


Question: who owns cnn ?

that will require , however , that cnn continue to `` get scoops out of baghdad , '' mr. lichter says .


Question: who owns cnn ?

the onslaught of international news -- the fall of the berlin wall , strife in the soviet union and now the persian gulf -- plays to cnn 's advantage , he adds .

`` history is conspiring to help cnn . ''


Question: who owns cnn ?

a.c. nielsen co. data show that cnn earned the highest ratings in its history wednesday .


Question: who owns cnn ?

in the prime-time period from 8 p.m. to 11 p.m. , cnn was seen by 19.1 % of its 56.8 million cable households .

in cable homes served by cnn , abc and its affiliates had a 14.4 rating .

wednesday , cnn attracted 7.3 % of cable homes , or 4.1 million households , which amounts to a national rating of 4.4 % of all tv homes in the country .

for its part , cnn says it may have made a breakthrough .

`` the viewership numbers clearly indicate we have reached a level in the minds of the cable-viewing public of being there when major news happens , '' says paul amos , cnn executive vice president for programming .

over the past year and a half , network executives have been trying to reposition cnn into a primary network that will draw a more loyal following with a regular prime-time newscast and more investigative coverage .

clearly , cnn 's international crisis coverage is what still stands out .


Question: who owns cnn ?

its reporting wednesday night `` must make the other guys just grind their teeth , '' says john s. reidy , a media analyst with smith barney , harris upham & co. while the three networks were forced to rely on correspondents in the u.s. , jordan , israel and saudi arabia , cnn was able to keep three reporters on the air from baghdad .


Question: who owns cnn ?

news officials at other networks yesterday were still trying to figure out how cnn -- and cnn alone -- had the one working phone link during the first bombing raid .


Question: who owns cnn ?

cnn had the advantage of a government-approved four -wire phone link , which had two lines coming in and two lines going out .


Question: who owns cnn ?

news officials said cnn may have won government approval because of its much higher profile overseas as the news service of choice for national heads of state .


Question: who owns cnn ?

`` cnn is saddam 's link to the outside world , '' said one news division executive .


Question: who owns cnn ?

but jealous rivals wondered whether cnn offered a rumored quid pro quo to get the phone line .


Question: who owns cnn ?

cnn said it obtained permission from the iraqi government ahead of time to operate the line , but denied it had granted any favors to the iraqis .


Question: who owns cnn ?

`` there 's been some speculation some sort of deal has been cut , '' says cnn 's mr. amos .


Question: who owns cnn ?

the iraqi ministry of information arrived at the hotel and ordered cnn to terminate its live satellite coverage yesterday .


Question: who owns cnn ?

the reasons were unclear , but one of the cnn baghdad reporters suggested that iraqis heard u.s. officials say they were gaining military information through the cnn broadcasts .


Question: who owns cnn ?

`` it would appear based upon the comments that were coming in from the cnn crew in the hotel in baghdad that the operation was successful in striking targets with a high degree of precision , '' said defense secretary dick cheney at a briefing wednesday night .


Question: who owns cnn ?

`` we have been very sensitive to collateral damage in the baghdad areas , '' he said , `` and i think the best source of how careful we have been is listening to the cnn reporters who were watching it unfold . ''


Question: who owns cnn ?

wednesday night , abc and cnn were first to go on the air with reports that an air attack had been launched , followed by nbc and then cbs .


Question: who owns cnn ?

after the major networks lost their phone communications , cnn offered to let them interview cnn anchor bernard shaw .


Question: who owns cnn ?

and because cnn reaches only about 60 % of the country 's households , she noted , putting mr. shaw on the air on nbc expanded his reach considerably .


Question: who owns cnn ?

but now that cnn 's phone link has been lost , said a spokesman for cbs news , `` we 're all back on the same playing field . ''


Question: who owns cnn ?

the major networks are hoping to regain an edge over cnn by trotting out their more experienced correspondents and analysts .

Question: who owns cnn ?

the package is part of several aggressive marketing plays cnn is making in the current `` up-front '' market , in which advertisers buy ad time for the 1991-92 television season .


Question: who owns cnn ?

it is offering an election-coverage package with time warner , for example , which combines commercials on cnn with article-length `` advertorials '' in time magazine and with a voter -education program including teaching guides for schools .


Question: who owns cnn ?

with its global ad packages , though , cnn faces a daunting task .


Question: who owns cnn ?

the cable network is offering to coordinate global media buys through a single office ; before , sponsors had to buy ad time for u.s. and international satellite feeds separately , through different cnn executives .


Question: who owns cnn ?

he says that for a global package to work , cnn would have to allow clients to make separate ad buys around the world , and then put them all together under a single umbrella with a discount .


Question: who owns cnn ?

mr. uva says cnn is willing to structure deals around advertisers , and , as for discounts , `` there are economies of scale in any type of negotiated business . ''


Question: who owns cnn ?

american telephone & telegraph , which already advertises on cnn both in the u.s. and internationally , `` is very interested in hearing '' global proposals , says linda urban , at & t 's manager of broadcast media , who adds that she has yet to see the cnn plan .


Question: who owns cnn ?

cnn 's mr. uva says his goal is to sign up four to five global advertisers for the package deal , with each spending in the $ 8 million-to- $ 10 million range .


Question: who owns cnn ?

cnn is faring particularly well because of the gulf war , which drew attention and huge new audiences to the network .


Question: who owns cnn ?

ratings since the war 's end have slid to prewar levels , with cnn drawing an average of just 1.9 % of tv viewers through last saturday , the same percentage as a year ago .


Question: who owns cnn ?

already , mr. uva says cnn is negotiating some ad packages with agencies for next fall , and he is hoping for price increases in the high single-digit to low double-digit range .


Question: who owns cnn ?

`` i 'm not sure if there was an understanding of cnn 's international presence and import before the war , '' says david bell , president of ad agency bozell inc .


Question: who owns cnn ?

insiders say that in addition to cnn and espn , u.s. -based home box office , singapore broadcasting corp. and tv new zealand are negotiating for space on one of the satellites .


Question: who owns cnn ?

cnn and espn programming , however , will be scrambled and will be available to viewers by the end of this year by subscription only .

cnn subscribers also will need a decoder to unscramble the signal , a device the company likely will provide as part of the subscription .
