The budgets have been cut big time at many news organizations as ad revenue for television and newspapers dry up.
BBC brings in money from their cable revenues for “BBC World News” (the charge to the cable company for service every month) helping them to field a large force of reporters around the world.
CNN created worldwide service and coverage in its formative years including partnerships with local broadcasters in countries from Argentina to Turkey and many more.

Yep, CNN's Baghdad bureau broadcast live during the opening days of the first Gulf War, as long as they presented the storyline Saddam wanted. CNN didn't want to risk losing their position by broadcasting facts.
