AMNN

AMNN was an internationally transmitted American cable television news network. One of its frequently seen newscasters was Trinity Wells, (DW: Aliens of London/World War III onwards). To date the exact meaning of the acronym AMNN has not been spelled out, although the channel's appearances in Torchwood suggested that the second N stands for "Network", as it was seen on screen as "AMN Network".

Behind the Scenes
While real-life BBC News personnel, sets and graphics have appeared in the Doctor Who Universe, AMNN is a fictional creation, analogous to CNN. In real life, CNN generally no longer allows the use of its name, logo, or personnel in fictional contexts after use of CNN footage in the science fiction film Contact (specially footage on then-President Bill Clinton) caused controversy. As such, numerous shows have created fictional versions of CNN for their use, such as "ZNN" which often shows up on progammes such as NCIS.
