CNC World (simplified Chinese: 中国新华新闻电视网英语电视台; traditional Chinese: 中國新華新聞電視網英語電視台; pinyin: Zhōngguó Xīnhuá Xīnwén Diànshì Wǎng Yīngyǔ Diànshìtái) is a majority state-owned 24-hour global English-language news channel, launched on July 1, 2010.[1] It is 51% owned by the state-run China Xinhua News Network Corporation, and 49% by private investors, including Chinese home appliances maker Gree.[2]

The venture is part of Beijing's effort to "present an international vision with a Chinese perspective," Xinhua President Li Congjun said at the press conference announcing the launch of CNC World.[3][4][5][6]

Xinhua has leased a newsroom in New York on top of a skyscraperinTimes Square to provide CNC World with prominent exposure in the United States.[3] On December 16, 2010, CNC World agreed a deal with Eutelsat for coverage on Eutelsat 28A, 36B and Hot Bird 13B from January 1, 2011.[7]

In 2020, the United States Department of State designated Xinhua, along with other Chinese state media outlets, as foreign missions.[8] By 2021, the network's terrestrial television affiliates in the United States had all disaffiliated with the network.[9]
