Before the September 11, attacks, the channel became noted for its distinct "screen" starting in August , in which the news anchor or news footage appears in a sort of visual "window" surrounded by constantly changing text, such as breaking news, sports scores, stock market reports, and weather updates.
The channel's new programs included Showbiz Tonight with A. Hammer and Karyn Bryant , a program focusing on the celebrity news of the day; an eponymous legal news and discussion program hosted by Nancy Grace ; and a general national news program titled Prime News Tonight hosted by Mike Galanos. This eliminated the main difference between CNN Headline News and CNN during primetime, which had always broadcast a variety of news-related programs, such as documentaries and personality-based shows like Larry King Live.
In the channel dramatically scaled back the amount of on-screen information following much scrutiny and lampooning of the format, such as USA Today calling the screen a "jumbled mess. The channel also began a shift away from their rolling news coverage throughout primetime to longer, personality-based programs, under the title Headline Prime in February of the same year. Continuing changes on the channel, Headline News introduced a new set in December Programming changes have also taken place, with the introduction of News To Me , a program featuring only user-generated content, in May, a daily broadcast of the previous evening's Larry King Live , in June, and a shift towards the channel's rolling news coverage being handled by a single anchor, deviating from the channel's traditional dual anchor format since The Larry King Live re-air has been replaced by a re-air of Showbiz Tonight from the previous evening that in turn was dropped for an extension of "Morning Express".
Both of HLN's standard-definition and high-definition feeds now carry the same screen format; however, video footage broadcast in standard-definition on either feed is not pillarboxed much like it is on parent channel CNN since its SD feed switched from to in January , leaving black bars on the right and left sides of the screen, as well as on the top and bottom of the screen. Two days later, the "Headline News" name was removed from on-air use, and a new slogan, "News and Views", was introduced.
The 'Headline News' name remains in use for on-screen copyright notices. CNN Student News is a student news program targeted for the classroom that runs from to am ET Monday to Friday as part of the cable industry's Cable in the Classroom inititave, as anchor Carl Azuz reports the day's news in a simplified format stories with graphic imagery or adult themes are usually left out from this newscast.
Due to the channel's tradition of rolling news coverage, HLN has become popular with people who may not have time to watch lengthy news reports, in addition to places where a high demand for "get to the point" news exists, such as airports , bars , and many other places.
Since its inception, Headline News has been syndicated to network television affiliates in the United States, mainly airing in overnight time periods as stations began to be encouraged to carry a full hour schedule and not go off-the-air.
Audio of the channel has also been simulcast on AM radio stations across the country via Westwood One. As of , however, these affiliations are being phased out due to the format changes on the channel. In the mids, the channel has been made available to some viewers outside the US, particularly in Asia and Latin America.
While the international version's programme line-up is exactly the same as in the US, weather forecasts for Asian and Latin American cities are used as break fillers in lieu of commercials. HLN presents a variety of programming, providing rolling news coverage from the early morning through the late afternoon Eastern Time , followed by subject-oriented programming during primetime hours.
