AppleScript for iTunes
Play Hourly Newscasts v1.2
Obligatory warning: This script has been designated as an obsoleted "Retro Script". There is no guarantee that it will function as described with modern versions of iTunes (or the newer Music or TV apps) and/or macOS. If used in its current form it may not work at all without modification. At worst, it may corrupt or delete data.
These four script applets will each, respectively, download and play the latest AP NewsPulse, BBC Hourly World News Bulletin, CNN News Update, or NPR Hourly News Summary podcast episode when it becomes available enabling you to integrate an hourly newscast into your iTunes music listening throughout the day.
(Note: In order to launch this PowerPC-era script on an modern machine, it must first be opened and then saved using Script Editor which is located in your /Applications/Utilities/ folder. More information is here.)
