While traditional TV news services have had their place in the American culture for decades, today’s streaming world is transforming the way people get their news. Instead of reading the same old headlines, you can find a new way to consume the news that will be relevant to you and your family. Streaming news sources have made it possible to read millions of articles from major media outlets on a daily basis. You can also read transcripts from television and radio programs and watch daily updates on popular news sources.
In 1980, Ted Turner created the cable news network CNN. At the time, he had no experience in the news industry, and CBS News President Bill Leonard questioned whether people would be interested in his new venture. Today, CNN is the largest television news organization in the United States, employing more journalists than any other U.S. broadcast operation. The company also launched Fox News Channel and MSNBC. In fact, CBS tried to purchase the company, but ultimately decided not to.
As the world transitions toward streaming news, local broadcasts are adjusting. For example, CBS owned local stations have begun to pipe local news into the CBS network. For example, CBS picked up local coverage of the Sacramento shooting despite the Grammys, which would have taken precedence. Another example was the Pittsburgh bridge collapse, when the local CBS affiliate piped coverage to streaming platforms.
