New England Cable News (NECN) is a regional 24-hour cable news television network owned and operated by NBCUniversal (as part of the NBC Owned Television Stations division) serving the New England region of the United States. It is very similar to CNN in structure and style, but focuses more on regional news, though in some low priority timeslots, paid programming and programming from WNBC such as Talk Stoop and Open House are seen, along with a late night replay of sister channel Comcast SportsNet New England's SportsNet Central highlights rundown show. The channel is also similar to Northwest Cable News, which covers the Pacific Northwest. Its main studios are located in Newton, Massachusetts (near Boston), but operates several news bureaus in the New England area, including Manchester,
