In this form Headline News was also easily adaptable for radio, and stations that wanted a dependable "all-news" format would air the audio of the network, giving Headline News a second, though less obvious audience. This is the format that CNN Headline News enjoyed for over twenty years.

There would be general news at the top and bottom of the hour taking up half the program, personal finance reports (known as " Dollars and Sense") at the 15 minute mark, "Headline Sports" at 20 minutes, the "Hollywood Minute" immediately after, and lifestyle reports in the last five minutes (or on some cable systems, a local news update provided by the cable system or a local TV station). This was best demonstrated in quick promos aired on other Turner networks in the early 90s- we see a really boring looking show, before an announcer points out "You could be watching the news right now." and a remote switching the image to Headline News. Its original focus was a 30-minute newscast called Headline News which filled viewers in on the day's most prominent stories in a half-hour "wheel" format resembling the news radio stations found in large urban areas, repeated on a 24-hour loop, thus allowing viewers to catch up on a day's worth of news in just half an hour, any time of the day (something that is very useful in places like airports and bars). The channel was established as CNN2 in 1982, partly in order to double-team ABC and Westinghouse's Satellite News Channel (which had a similar format) out of existence, and changed its name to CNN Headline News the following year, although use of the word "CNN" in the title was always fairly intermittent.
HLN was originally a 24-hour news network that was spun off from CNN, and is now a network dedicated almost entirely to true crime programming.
