Despite this, the international feed remains an advertising-supported service, while the domestic BBC News channel continues to opt out of the shared schedule for UK-specific news coverage and programmes. In April 2023, the BBC began to further consolidate the programming and talent of the two channels as part of a corporation-wide streamlining of operations, with both channels now using the BBC News branding. As such, the channel is not broadcast in the UK directly, although selected programmes and bulletins have been carried on the domestic BBC News channel (especially during the overnight hours), and vice versa (including domestic programmes such as Click and HARDtalk, and during breaking news and special events in the UK). Unlike the BBC's domestic channels, it is funded by subscription and advertising revenues, and not by the United Kingdom television licence. According to the BBC, the combined seven channels of the Global News operations have the largest audience market share among all of its rivals, with an estimated 99 million viewers weekly in 2016–2017, part of the estimated 121 million weekly audience of all its operations. Launched on 11 March 1991 as BBC World Service Television outside Europe, its name was changed to BBC World on 16 January 1995 and to BBC World News on 21 April 2008 and again to BBC News (International) on 3 April 2023 after its consolidation with the domestic BBC News Channel.
