'''7 News''' is a Caprican news agency of [[Channel K]] and contemporary of [[Caprica 5]].
'''Channel 7 News''' was another Caprican news agency and a competitor of [[Caprica 5]].  Like its competition, this news agency covered the [[Cylon attack]] until its field reporters were killed in the bomb blasts.


This station's logo was a plain white number 7 located inside a circle of the same color.  The word NEWS was printed under the icon. Unlike Caprica 5, 7 News' icon appeared in the top right-hand corner of viewing screens.

7 News had a field reporter, presumably located near the [[Riverwalk]] of [[Caprica City]] during the [[Fall of the Twelve Colonies|Cylon attack]]. [[Gaius Baltar]] watches this station and Caprica 5 simultaneously on a dual wall-mounted viewing screen. The field reporter reports to viewers that no further ships can leave the planet and warnings to evacuate from the population centers when a bomb explodes over Caprica City.
Channel 7 News was seen only once during the [[Miniseries]] as it covered the [[Fall of the Twelve Colonies|Cylon attack]]. [[Gaius Baltar]] was watching this station and Caprica 5 simultaneously on a dual wall-mounted viewingscreen. The field reporter for Channel 7 News was in a city at the time reporting on the apocalyptic event when suddenly, a bomb exploded nearby. The shockwave knocked the reporter and a background outdoor café off the screen. The camera was destroyed soon after, evidenced by the screen reverting to static. After this broadcast signal was severed, Channel 7 News was never heard from or mentioned again in the series.


Baltar sees Caprica 5's signal immediately disappear. Moments later, the same shockwave literally blows the 7 News reporter and a background outdoor café out of the camera view, and his camera's signal ceases {{TRS|Miniseries, Night 1}}.
