Daily international news show a la The World in video form?

Looking for a daily international-focused world news and features program in video format, ideally accessible with a Roku or on Youtube. Thoughtful reporting, longer segments and a generally neutral tone. In short, something like public radio's The World, but on TV. Any suggestions?

How to Become an Expert in Foreign News?

I have been offered a somewhat prestigious job in foreign news. I have been working in other areas of journalism for the last decade, but am not particularly well versed in international news. So I am looking to bone up on, basically, the entire history of the world, all of its current political leaders/conflicts, geography, current expert thinkers/critics on regional international questions.
