Well, if Al-Jazeera live on the internet isn't doing it for you (and really, their feed is pretty small), you can try France's new 24 hour news channel, which went live today. All I've seen thus far is their weather map, but it's pretty swanky.

the weather map is also pretty melodramatic - both in terms of its graphics and its narration. A warm weather system "gently teases" the coast of Africa? Storms "invave" new zealand? c'mon...

I can't remember the exact phrasing, but at one point they said a series of storms were 'destabilizing the middle east' or something like that. It was hilarious!
