Owned by Time Warner who have an extremely large financial and long term agreement with Comcast so I'm not surprised it's staying on Sky...

If you have a Samsung Smart TV, you can get CNN through TV Plus for free.

Gutted to see this. Everywhere I go in the world, I find CNN available. Just joined BT and most unhappy to see CNN and BBC News are not available.  Is there another way I can get them on my TV?

BBC News is available on channel 107 as Freeview. 

[SimonG62]

Thank you, but there is no channel 107 available. Freeview only has 101 to 105

[sea2dog]

Depends on which package you have with BT, you're right that it's not on Freeview, but the HD version channel 107 is available with BT-TV.

You are wrong channel 107 dose not depend on what BT TV package that you have.

The HD version of 107 depends if you can pick up the COMs 7 Freeview signal and what transmitter you are using. Channel 106 is the same with Freeview.
