For nearly two decades, Capitol
Television News Service (CTNS) has been providing
television news rooms with coverage of State Capitol activities,
features and major breaking stories in the region. Our
staff camera crews and reporters cover the Capitol Monday
through Friday preparing an average 4 to 5 stories daily.
Those stories, VO, SOTs and occasionally package reports
are fed via Ku band satellite from our headquarters in
downtown Sacramento.
Subscribers to the service get a morning rundown of the planned
coverage. Around mid-day, a final rundown is sent out. Script
and other information is provided in mid-afternoon. Subscribers can download windows media and MPEG2 files of our daily stories as well. CTNS
also sells stories individually from the feed or from our
extensive library. We can feed these stories via Ku or C
band satellite or via Vyvx, LTN, and The Switch (fiber optic).
Contact Muna Sadek for subscription information.
