All News Channel's Slogans & Taglines

All News Channel (ANC) was an American satellite television news channel and broadcast syndication service operated as a joint venture between Viacom and CONUS Communications, a division of Hubbard Broadcasting. Launched on November 30, 1989, and headquartered in St. Paul, Minnesota, the channel was conceived as the second nationwide challenger to CNN, following the earlier demise of Satellite News Channel in 1983. ANC delivered half-hourly rotating newscasts in a rolling news wheel format, incorporating story packages gathered from in-house reporting staffs and sourced from local television stations affiliated with the CONUS satellite news video-sharing cooperative. Its core offerings encompassed national and international headlines, weather forecasts, sports scores, consumer reports, and lifestyle segments, alongside bespoke news updates produced for premium cable channel Showtime beginning in 1991. Embodying the positioning "News Straight from America's Hometowns", ANC championed local-to-national coverage, though it struggled with cable carriage and was never profitable. The channel ceased operations on June 17, 1994, after Hubbard announced the closure of CONUS newsgathering operations.
