Complete Video Coverage of International News
Reuters World News Service is our core television product covering every major international news event. Our on-the-ground television crews work with 200 Reuters bureaus globally to quickly deliver trustworthy journalism and high quality news video to the world's broadcasters.
We transmit footage from the field to our London newsroom and other regional news hubs – including Singapore and Washington DC. All stories are edited, scripted and packaged for distribution via Reuters World News Express file delivery system through dedicated satellite network. Live video of major news supplements video files.
