News broadcast use of RTTY or SITOR mode B
 
I've been looking to see if I can find any news broadcasters like
Reuters or AP still using teletype. I have not found any so far. Is
anyone aware if commercial broadcasters still using teletype?

Thanks,

Nah, this stuff is on satellite these days. I've seen once in a
while receptions of stuff from the Philippines and Argentina, but it's
very very rare. 73s Mike

Too bad. It looks like SITOR B and NAVTEX would make a good news
clippings distribution method.

I think it is too hard to encrypt, and it is less reliable than satellite.
