Summary
Bloomberg Television is a 24-hour global network dedicated to providing viewers with business and financial news. It is distributed globally, reaching over 200 million homes worldwide. Bloomberg Television is owned and operated by Bloomberg L.P. and is internationally headquartered in New York City with its European Headquarters in London and Asian Headquarters in Hong Kong. The network also provides funding and studio facilities for the nightly PBS/WNET programme Charlie Rose.Shortly after Bloomberg's launch, the now-defunct American Independent Network carried a simulcast of the channel at various times each weekday from 1995 to 1997. The network's morning pre-opening bell programming was also aired on the USA Network, simulcasted in a paid programming arrangement with the channel until 2004, when that network dropped the simulcast months before the NBC Universal merger was consummated, due to concerns USA would then air the coverage of a competitor to future sister network CNBC.
