Subject: What News Shows Do You Watch In Costa Rica?

Does Costa Rica have an English news channel or do you get CNN?

I hope all is going well for you.

Bill

Hi Bill, thanks for writing. Two weeks ago I subscribed to Sky Satellite TV ($45 usd a month, basic package). I had been without TV for six months.

There is no English speaking news available here. But Sky TV provides CNN International, Bloomberg and of course, Fox News. An interesting side note is that Fox News here has no paid commercials, just Fox promos. CNN has paid commercials as does Bloomberg. Oh, my Sky TV is out of Mexico.

Things are going just fine for me, Bill, thank you for asking.
