Larry King on Joost…
Times Online’s Rhys Blakely writes about Tuner’s agreement with Joost…
Joost, the internet-TV service set up by the technology gurus behind Skype and Kazaa, today unveiled content agreements with Turner Broadcasting and Sony as it heads towards a full-blown launch later in the spring.
The deals mean that users of the free internet service will be able to watch content from Turner including CNN’s Larry King Live.
UPDATE: Paidcontent.org has more…
The deal with Turner Broadcasting, which has to tread very carefully lest it freak out the bread-and-butter cable ops, includes episodes of Aqua Teen Hunger Force and Robot Chicken from Adult Swim; Anderson Cooper 360, Larry King Live and documentaries from CNN Productions; Turner South programs Home Plate, Off the Menu and Southern Home By Design. The CNN RSS feed will be added to the Joost news ticker. (Is there an RSS feed of the CNN crawl?) Time Warner sibling SI adds swimsuit video.
Hopefully they’ll get the software working a little better…I’m a beta tester for Joost and it crashes, which sucks.

Robot Chicken AND Larry King Live!!!
But how will I tell them apart?

Joost has a rss aggregator. (which they call the “news ticker” that “flashes” multiple feeds of your choice) Perhaps he meant the CNN feed will be automatically added.

Yes he meant that too.
