NBC News Now

Does anyone know the reason as to why NBC News Now has gone? Virgin never had it that long and now it has gone.  My guess is that Comcast has made the decision as I know it is Comcast that owns the channel.

The channel has been closed on both Virgin and Sky, but if you use the YouTube app you can watch NBC News Now.

NBC News Now has ceased all broadcast operations in the UK. It is owned by Comcast, which is Sky's parent company. Sky dropped the service in December, & while it continued for a further month on Virgin their agreement has also been terminated. The channel is still available on YouTube.

Thanks guys.  Good to know it is available on Youtube.

I am abit annoyed about this too. It was easier to just have it as channel 1 in my profile or say 'nbc news ' into the remote. Now it's an extra step

On a side note, CBS News is avaliable in Pluto
