CNN Launches Android App With Video and Sharing

CNN has released a new app for phones running Android 2.1 and later that provides streaming video from CNN’s web site and the ability to share links to the news reports on Facebook and Twitter. The CNN app also provides the ability for users to participate in iReport, which is CNN’s community site for people to directly submit their own news stories. The CNN App for Android is available now in the Android Market.

When you start the app you first see the CNN Headlines section, which is where you can watch and read items from CNN’s web site.
