BBC World Service
Overnight starting at 10pm, Saturday starting at 11pm
For close to 80 years, BBC World Service has been one of the globe's most comprehensive sources for news. Few networks can rival the list of BBC international correspondents, reporters and producers - it's one of the world's most respected news outlets. However, the BBC is far more than just breaking news. It offers a wide variety of information programming, including programs on arts, sports, science and business. And we're proud to feature many of these programs throughout the night on WMRA.
