===Experiments===

CNN launched two specialty news channels for the American market which would later close amid competitive pressure: the sports news channel [[CNN Sports Illustrated|CNNSI]] shut down in 2002, while business news channel [[CNNfn]] shut down after nine years on the air in December 2004. CNN had a partnership with ''[[Sports Illustrated]]'' through the sports website CNNSI.com, but sold the domain name in May 2015.<ref>{{cite web|last1=Silver|first1=Elliot|title=CNNSi.com Sells for $5,500|url=http://www.domaininvesting.com/cnnsi-com-sells-for-less/|website=DomainInvesting.com|access-date=April 4, 2016|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160402144325/http://www.domaininvesting.com/cnnsi-com-sells-for-less/|archive-date=April 2, 2016|url-status=dead}}</ref> CNNfn's former website used to redirect to money.cnn.com, a product of CNN's strategic partnership with ''[[Money (magazine)|Money]]'' magazine. ''Money'' and ''Sports Illustrated'' were both Time Warner properties until 2014, when the company's magazine division was [[corporate spin-off|spun off]] into the separate [[Time Inc.]]<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.usatoday.com/story/money/business/2014/05/08/time-inc-spinoff/8861337/|title=Time Inc. spins off from Time Warner on June 6|website=[[USA Today]]|last1=Yu|first1=Roger|date=May 9, 2014|access-date=September 19, 2020|archive-date=November 26, 2020|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20201126134808/https://www.usatoday.com/story/money/business/2014/05/08/time-inc-spinoff/8861337/|url-status=live}}</ref>
