History

Businessman Chairul Tanjung announced the birth of a strategic partnership between the then CNN brand owner Turner Broadcasting System unit of Time Warner (both Turner and Warner are part of what is now Warner Bros. Discovery) and Trans Media to launch a CNN-branded channel in Indonesia.[2] CNN Indonesia began as an online portal, CNNIndonesia.com, on 24 October 2014 with Yusuf Arifin as editor in chief. It made its soft launching as a news channel in conjunction with the 70th anniversary of the country's Proclamation of Independence on 17 August 2015; official launch of the local franchise was held in conjunction with Trans Media's 14th anniversary on 15 December 2015.

Programmes

As of 2022, the majority of CNN Indonesia's programming is locally produced. Some of the channel's news programmes are simulcast either through Trans Media's free-to-air networks Trans TV and Trans7, most notably Redaksi which previously aired on Trans7 themselves and now it was moved and productions of the program which was redirected to CNN Indonesia.
