ed in a paid programming arrangement with the channel until 2004, when that network dropped the simulcast months before the NBC Universal
merger was consummated, due to concerns USA would then air the coverage of a competitor to future sister network CNBC
. The simulcast then moved to E!
(which became NBCU-owned in January 2011 due to NBCU's purchase by Comcast

Also on that date, Bloomberg US revamped its weekday programming lineup (see "Programs on Bloomberg" below).
Starting October 2009, Bloomberg Television debuted another new graphics package again.

During the time when this section of the speech was being delivered, the newscast presented a short segment about the "Beige Book
", a report which is regularly issued by the Federal Reserve Board.
Much of the controversy concerned whether or not the censorship had racial overtones, or was simply directed at the specific content of the speech.
In the United Kingdom
, Bloomberg television was severely reprimanded for breach of Ofcom
rules during the 2005 UK national (General) election
. Bloomberg TV was found to have showed pro-Labour Party
bias. This occurred due to a breach of British law. In the run up to a general election television channels must provide equal time to all major political parties. Bloomberg covered the release by the Labour Party of their so-called "Business Manifesto" but did not provide counter-balancing air time to the Conservatives
or Liberal Democrats
.
Until 1998, Bloomberg did not have a moving ticker. Instead, it had boxes that were dedicated to world news as well as weather conditions in selected cities in addition to market data, which was confined to the bottom of the screen. This changed gradually to focus more on business news. The data screen was reformatted several times to include a moving stock ticker and accommodate new graphics.
The datascreen format was phased out in late 2007 where the programmes were seen almost in full screen with the ticker and headlines bar confined to the lower part of the screen.

Controversy
On April 13, 2011, Bloomberg Television was heavily criticized for using an advanced copy of a speech delivered by U.S. President Barack Obama to censor live coverage of the speech. During the live speech, which was about the national debt, Bloomberg cut out a portion of the speech. The exact transcript of the removed portion was:-
- By 2025, the amount of taxes we currently pay will only be enough to finance: our healthcare programs (Medicare and Medicaid), social security, and the interest we owe on our debt. That's it. Every other national priority: education, transportation, even our national security, will have to be paid for with borrowed money. Now ultimately this rising debt will cost jobs and damage our economy. It will prevent us from making the investments we need to win the future. We won't be able to afford good schools, new research, or the repair of roads. All the things that create new jobs and new businesses here in America. Businesses would be less likely...
During the time when this section of the speech was being delivered, the newscast presented a short segment about the "Beige Book
