The Federation News Network was a news and information organization operating in the United Federation of Planets, beginning as early as the 2260s.
Following the USS Lovell's mission to Outpost 5 in 2264, Lieutenant Commander Montgomery Scott noted that the work of the Corps of Engineers was rarely featured on the Federation News Network, but that they did deserve greater recognition. (SCE eBook: Foundations, Book One)
In 2388, the Federation News Network reported that the Vulcan Science Academy knew of the threat posed by the Hobus supernova to Romulus, but refused to assist the Romulans in preventing their planet's destruction. This resulted in the widespread condemnation of Vulcan, with numerous planets recalling their ambassadors to Vulcan. Two days later, the Federation Council voted to open an investigation into Vulcan's inaction, and the Academy's work with red matter. (ST website: The Path to 2409)
The Federation News Network (FNN) is one of the Federation's leading news and current affairs reporting bureau.
An FNN reporter was present at the 2293 shakedown cruise of the USS Enterprise-B through the Sol system. (Star Trek Generations)
In late 2366 and early 2367, the FNN reported on the Battle of Wolf 359 and other Borg-related matters throughout the crisis. One of their reporters was named Emmy. (Star Trek: The Prospect Chronicles: "The Burnt Child")
In 2372, the FNN sent the ship D'Audney to report on the Starfleet battle against the Myhr'an over Canaileus Prime. During the struggle, FNN lead reporter Kevin Alton sacrificed the D'Aubrey by setting a collision course with a Myhr'an battle cruiser, destroying both ships but saving the outnumbered and outgunned USS Cantabrian, making the battle more even. (Star Trek: The Cantabrian Expeditions: "Oh, What a Lovely War")
Many reports of the FNN are accessible as life streams in the network. (Dragon Ball Z vs. Star Trek: The Way of Infinity)
