Watch CNN Live

I know. I've been into news and politics lately and my blog is starting to get out of topic. One more shot, though. You can either watch CNN live on the station's website or access the stream directly via Windows Media Player or VLC. For Windows Media Player, go to File > Open URL and paste the direct URL below.

rtsp://cnn-cnnlive-1-primary.wm.llnwd.net/cnn_cnnlive_1_primary/

For any other platform users, you can use free, open-source VLC to play the stream. Download and install VLC, then select File > Open Network. Select HTTP/FTP/MMS/RTSP from the list of protocols on the left, and paste the rtsp:// URL above in the text area at the top.
