The CNN listing on the TV guide is incorrect. Can it be fixed?

It would appear that breaking news has taken over instead of the schedule.

A change in the epg would have to be communicated to sky by cnn, but is 11:45pm on a friday night so unlikely

The CNN schedule is the same as ever; it's the EPG that's incorrect, out of sync with what's on by 6 hours. I had NewsNight set to record yesterday, it usually airs at 3AM here, instead CNN Newsroom recorded at 9AM (despite it appearing labeled as NewsNight in my recordings).

At the moment, The Source is currently airing at its usual time (2AM-3AM) but the EPG is showing Isa Soares Tonight which aired at 7PM yesterday evening.

The Source I'm currently watching is listed on the EPG as being on at 8AM despite it actually airing at 2AM. And it's showing this out of sync schedule for the rest of the week (along with multiple incorrect programme lengths, i.e. Isa Soares Tonight airing for 3h30m from 1AM Wednesday), it's like a bad update's been applied somewhere.

I have just sent an email to Sky. Hopefully it wont take forever for this to be fixed. In the meantime I am setting up manual recordings for the shows that affect me. If anyone has any other work arounds please share.

Thanks

I emailed Sky Viewer Relations today who replied:

"Thank you for your email to Sky regarding the CNN channel.

Sky does not own or operate the CNN channel and has no control over their schedule.

However, we can provide feedback to the broadcaster if there is an issue with their content.

I can see that the on screen content does not match their TV guide schedule currently and this has been raised to the broadcaster for them to resolve as soon as possible.

As this channel, nor its content is owned or operated by Sky, we do not have an estimated time for a resolution.

Thanks again for taking the time to bring this to our attention."

Just looking at various sites - current programme is 'Fareed Zakaria GPS'

Digigude and SkyQ are listing 'CNN Newsroom'.

The CNN website is correct if you select 'North America' but is wrong if you select 'Europe' (six hours out).

VirginMedia is actually correct and listing 'Fareed Zakaria GPS' from 3pm to 4pm.

CNN Schedule on Q box

JCM3 — Mon, 08 Sep 2025 22:15:17 GMT

The TV schedule for CNN programmes is completely inaccurate. This is most frustrating when it comes to making accurate timed recordings. It seems that all the tiimings are incorrect. This needs to be corrected. Can Sky take this on board and fix it?

@JCM3 I have merged your post to this existing thread that is discussing the same issue, a new thread isn't required.

Please also see the replies posted, it's not a Sky issue, Sky don't own or operate CNN.

CNN TV listings for UK viewers

UK-viewer — Tue, 09 Sep 2025 12:17:51 GMT

My regular CNN programs are no longer listed at their normal times.
Anderson Cooper used to be on @ 1:00 AM (GMT) now the Tv listing says it's on at 7:00 AM in UK.

I recorded it and instead on Anderson getting a different general news program, no Anderson.

also Jake Tapper use to be one hour now we only get 30 minutes and then 30 minutes of sports.
Can't find Wolf Blitzer anywhere.
Not happy with all the changes going on.

CNN (ch 506) programme times offset

JamesMcG1978 — Tue, 09 Sep 2025 14:01:57 GMT

I seem to be experiencing an issue where the listing for CNN (channel 506) have the correct shows listed, but all at the wrong time. For example, a show that starts at midnight, is listed as starting six hours later at 6am. The show is actually aired at midnight. In order for me to record the correct shows, I need to select record on whatever show it thinks is airing at midnight. In short, I'm having to record by airtime and not by the listing. This also means that the series link doesn't work as it records when the guide thinks the show is on, which actually aired six hours prior and is now missed.

I have carried out a soft reset by unplugging my Sky Q box for at least 30 seconds. This did not resolve the issue.

Next, I carried out a reset of my settings. This did not resolve the issue.

Next I used the hidden menu and carried out a factory reset, wiping all settings & recordings. This did not resolve the issue either.

I'm not sure what to do now & would appreciate any assistance that anyone can advise?

Thank you. It would appear to be an issue with CNN themselves. I'll just need to wait until they sort themselves out. Thank you for your response and for moving my question to the correct thread.
