International & Multicultural Edition 1/25/07 Good Morning. It's Thursday, January 25, 2007, and this is your first early morning International & Multicultural briefing. INTERNATIONAL MARKET: BBC World Service has teamed up with Bangladesh-based mobile content aggregator QA Konsortium to launch a comprehensive SMS news service in Dhaka. The service provides subscribers with news from the BBC gathered from all over the world via a single SMS sent to subscribers' cellular phones. BBC news on demand is available in seven categories including Asia Pacific, Breaking News, Cricket, Entertainment, Football, South Asia and World News. LIVING has signed Britain's Next Top Model star and model, Abbey Clancy, to appear in a new series with Janice Dickinson. The show, as yet untitled, will see Abbey taking on modeling challenges in each episode that mirror Janice's own career. Janice takes on the role of Abbey's mentor. The show will be produced by Whizz Kid Entertainment and will be part of LIVING's 2Q2007 schedule. Cablevision Systems Corp. has launched iO International, an array of nine international in-language packages, across the company's entire service area, with dozens of channels. The new services feature television channels from around the world, presented in Spanish, Russian, Italian, Chinese, Korean, Hindi and other languages. Cablevision has launched these new international programming services through a technology called switched digital video. HISPANIC MARKET: Casting Call: Univision has a casting call for Nuestra Belleza Latina (Our Latin Beauty), its newest program and competition. The competition is looking for women 18-27, fluent in Spanish and, if chosen as a finalist, must be available to reside in Miami during the length of their participation in the program. It will kick off on January 28 in New York City as it searches the U.S. and Puerto Rico to compete to win a contract as Univision's newest on-air personality and the chance to win more than $200,000 in cash and prizes. The other calls will be on February 3 (Miami), February 11 (San Juan, PR), February 17 (Chicago), February 24 (LA), and February 27 (Houston). Details of the show, hosted by Univision's Giselle Blondet, and entry info are available at Univision.com (Uniclave: Nuestra Belleza Latina).
