What news companies have podcasts of their top-of-hour news?

Although not a podcast per se, NPR has the latest TOH newscast available on their website and with more people have smartphones, tablets and access to the web regardless as to where they, this would be another option.

I haven't checked their website yet, but I believe the BBC may also have the TOH news available by demand on their website.

Both the BBC and NPR do have actual podcasts available of many of their programs.

CBS News has the latest TOH newscast available on their website. It's actually on their twice - on their home page, and also via a link on their home page labeled "Radio".
 
CBS Radio News Network has an iPhone app that has almost all of their feeds including the CBS-TV Nightly News, TOH radio news, entertainment, etc.
 
Lots of good info for people looking for news, but I am looking for podcasts of the top-of-hour news. Thus far, no one has posted any. Apparently the only two that exist are the two with which I started the thread. :p

If you go to cbsradionews.com, you can play their TOH. You can also subscribe to it in Podcast form. You can also download their iOS or Android app. The app features streaming content as well as the latest radio TOH on demand. Their content is also on the radio.com services (website, mobile app, etc)

ABC News Radio has podcasting info and subscription links at abcnewsradioonline.com. The TOH is available. However, I don't believe they have mobile app.

Fox and NPR have all of the above.
 
Can you give me a link to the CBS and ABC TOH podcasts? I cannot find them anywhere. Thanks!

Sorry, but that is not a podcast. Podcasts are RSS feeds that aggregate news to podcast clients. Example: http://feeds.foxnewsradio.com/FoxNewsRadio

I like CBS's player simply because it's easy to embed on a website (which I did when a website that I maintain switched from USA to CBS).

I know ABC et al don't offer media players, though, which admittedly disappointed me.

As per USA, I know they do offer FTP uploads of newscasts for some affiliates (if they don't have access to a website). Not a podcast per se, but similar concept.
