Texas Cable News (TXCN) is a 24-hour regional cable news network based in Dallas, Texas. The service is owned by Belo Corporation, and operates out of the Belo campus in downtown Dallas.

TXCN combines the news staffs of four of Belo's Texas television stations—WFAA-TV in Dallas, KHOU-TV in Houston, KENS-TV in San Antonio, and KVUE in Austin—in addition to the Belo-owned Dallas Morning News and the company's Washington, D.C. news bureau.

On January 1, 2005 Texas Cable News programming was scaled down after 45 of the 75 staffers were let go. The announcement came on December 4, 2004. Parent company BELO, based in Dallas, attributed the failure of Texas Cable News to a lack of distribution on cable systems in Texas' largest TV markets.

TXCN now airs repackaged content from BELO sister stations in Dallas, Houston, San Antonio and Austin. All original programming, minus weather and occasional original programming, was dropped along with on-air talent, except for weather department staff.

TXCN is available in the following markets (all cable systems Time Warner unless otherwise noted):
* Austin - Channel 324
* Beaumont - Channel 58
* Houston (Comcast) - Channel 230
* San Antonio - Channel 232
* Corpus Christi - Channel 74
* Laredo - Channel 28
* Texarkana (Channel One) - Channel 53
* Dallas/Fort Worth (Charter in some areas) - Channel 38
* Port Arthur / Beaumont - Channel 58
* Waco - Channel 74
* El Paso - Channel 18
* Rio Grande Valley - Channel 39
* Wichita Falls - Channel 38
