CNB
From Wiki 24
CNB was a national news network in the United States. Its news anchors and field reporters have given coverage of some of the terrorist activities which CTU has contended with.

[edit] Day 1
The first appearance of CNB was at 5:06:34am when Carl Webb watched it in Palmer's hotel room. The reporter was giving a story about how Palmer was working on his speech throughout the night. Ira Gaines also watched CNB whilst Palmer was arriving at the breakfast.
When Palmer decided to give his speech about Carl Webb and his financial backers at around 6:30pm, it was broadcast on CNB. Later, Palmer watched CNB and saw that, despite his radical speech, voters still favoured him. He also watched CNB's America's Choice programme, which showed that he had officially won all eleven primaries on that day.
CNB later reported that the threat on David Palmer's life was averted, and it was made possible by Special Agent Jack Bauer from the Counter Terrorist Unit.
[edit] Day 2
David Palmer watched CNB after the explosion at CTU.
Whilst Michelle Dessler connected Kim Bauer through to Jack, CNB played on a CTU monitor.
[edit] Day 3
Anne Packard watches David Palmer and John Keeler's debate on CNB at around 5:40pm. Gael Ortega later watches it in Tech 1. CNB was also watched by Stephen Saunders later in the day when he forced Palmer to say "the sky is falling" in a press conference to prove that he would follow his demands.
CNB was again watched, this time by David Palmer, later in the day when John Keeler delivered information about Palmer on the news. Whilst he watched, Palmer spoke to Sherry on the phone.
[edit] Day 4
Behrooz Araz watched CNB in the hospital whilst he waited for his uncle.
[edit] Day 5
When Charles Logan annouces that he is imposing martial law, Vladimir Bierko watches his live address on CNB. The staff at CTU Los Angeles also watch the address just before Karen Hayes and Homeland Security arrive to take over.
[edit] Day 6
At the start of Day 6, CNB reported on a terrorist train bombing in Atlanta, Georgia, that occurred sometime eleven weeks prior to that morning. This attack was only one of several bombings arranged by Muslim radical Abu Fayed. In Los Angeles, the report was viewed by a male commuter, who observed that other people around him were racially profiling him on account of his Middle Eastern appearance. Seconds later, a real terrorist, who aroused no suspicion because he was Asian, exploded a suicide bomb in a crowded bus just down the street.
At 7:57am, CNB aired a live news report describing a terrorist attack on the largest shopping mall in Baltimore. This report later stated that 47 people were killed in a hotel bombing in Chicago, where bodies were hurled from many levels of the building. It was watched by Abu Fayed, the coordinator of that and other attacks (when Masheer Abu-Marzuq called to inform him of a failed bombing on Los Angeles Union Station).
It was also watched by President Wayne Palmer in the White House after the nuclear bomb explosion in Valencia, describing the attack as "the worst in the series of terrorist attacks that began 11 weeks ago". Vice President Noah Daniels, Tom Lennox, Karen Hayes and Arthur Welton watched replayed footage of President Wayne Palmer collapsing at his press conference later in the night.
Patrons of a bar on Santa Monica Pier watched CNB which informed them that a radiation spill in San Francisco had been contained. Dmitri Gredenko informed the patrons of the bar that he recognized Abu Fayed as the terrorist from the news, and used the opportunity to escape whilst Fayed was beaten by the patrons, then taken into custody by Jack Bauer.
At around 2:12 am, Josh Bauer watched CNB in the lounge room of CTU Los Angeles with his mother, where they were being kept. It informed viewers that rescue efforts continued in Valencia, but the death toll had risen to over 12,000 people.
[edit] The Rookie
CNB was watched by several agents of the FBI during Day 3 of The Rookie, in which the President of the United States was planning a trip to Baghdad. Brett Rogers commented that they could not use a satellite for Jason Blaine because it was being used to track the President's trip.
[edit] Day 7
One of CNB's reporters, Kevin Aldridge, planned to present a story against President Allison Taylor's military action in Sangala. The First Gentleman Henry Taylor managed to convince him to hold off on this story for at least a day. It was later on whilst the President was working in the Oval Office.
After 10:00pm, when President Taylor offered a speech regarding Benjamin Juma's attack on the White House, anotheer CNB reporter, Ken Dellao approached Ethan Kanin about Ryan Burnett's murder at the hands of Jack Bauer, and Ethan's involvement in it. Since few people knew about his involvement, Ethan accused Taylor's daughter, Olivia, for leaking the information. Olivia later told the President that she had contacted Charlie Isaacson, at CNB, and he agreed to hold the story in exchange for an interview with the President.
