Uh, they're called CP News?

LOL!!

The original station was called "City TV", they had a news program called "City Pulse". In the late 90s/early 00s they launched a 24h news channel and called it "Cable Pulse 24". At some point along the journey they shortened to that unfortunate name that I will now not ever be able to see and not laugh!!

CP 24 hour News. Definitely the worst news, for sure. Haha

Very unfortunate name but pretty hilarious no one caught it.
