Czech TV's CT 24, the first 24-hour news channel in the country's history, successfully launched its trial broadcast this Monday. The service is currently only available on the internet, on cable, or via satellite. For the next four months, CT 24 will only broadcast eighteen hours on week days and sixteen hours on the weekends, in order to test the waters, weed out all potential problems, and get a head start before other television stations with similar plans enter the market. Czech TV will launch its full 24-hour service in September.
