A new trend in news coverage is the growing use of online video streaming. This will allow news organizations to reshape their coverage. It won’t be limited by the costs of TV licensing. New overtly political news operations will be drawn to the streaming medium.
Streaming also has the added benefit of providing a more personalized news experience. You can choose the topics that you are interested in viewing. In fact, the major news networks have invested hundreds of millions of dollars in their streaming operations.
Streaming is also a means of making building a news library more cost-effective. As an example, the Pittsburgh local CBS affiliate piped its coverage of the Pittsburgh bridge collapse to the streaming community.
While broadcast and cable were still the top of the game in the world of news, the streaming medium is gaining in popularity. Many of the major streaming networks are offering live, reruns, and documentaries.
Despite the hype, streaming has proven itself to be an effective method of delivering current news. As of 2015, 85 percent of American households subscribed to a streaming service.
The streaming medium has enabled news organizations to deliver timely and accurate news to audiences around the globe. Major streaming networks are offering regular nightly news programs, along with news analysis and documentary series.
Unlike television, streaming allows viewers to watch news at any time. Streaming also gives the ability to archive content. However, the biggest advantage of streaming is that it reduces the scarcity of news in the media equation.
