This paper examined the validity of BS news English as a listening comprehension material in the university English classrooms. In order to render objective evaluations on the usefulness of the material, this article (1) clarified the characteristics of the news English, (2) analyzed the speech rate, and (3) studied the relationships between the learner's listening comprehensions of the material and some of the controlling factors such as speed, familiarity of the topic, presence of the background knowledge, frequency of listening, and listening tasks. The major findings suggested that (1) the speed of the material did not directly influence the learner's listening performance as previously thought and that (2) its validity depended upon listening tasks and the learner's listening proficiency level.
