E.tv is planning a brand-new satellite news channel, similar to eNews, but that will cater to the rest of Africa, outside of South Africa. This comes as e.tv is setting up shop in Ghana by establishing a broadcasting studio there and as the SABC's interim board is seriously considering the SABC's languishing own money draining news operation, SABC News International.
eNews Africa will in essence be a news service for the continent, although e.tv is still working out how the news will be delivered and what platform and shape it will take.
The aim is to provide Africa with as much news as possible about Africa itself. eNews Africa with some similarities and some unique features, will be a sister service to the eNews Channel - which after just more than a year and a bit on air, is now the MOST WATCHED NEWS SERVICE TV channel on the DStv bouquet.
