Streaming video news has proven to be a hit for both mass and niche audiences. While cable TV has long served as a news source, the streaming medium has provided news in a more timely and customizable format. Streaming services also offer reruns and documentaries.
The convergence of long-gestating cultural trends and the adoption of streaming has made video news ubiquitous. Major streaming networks are repurposing programming from broadcast and cable, and they’re scheduling regular nightly news programs.
The networks also sensed the momentum of their streaming audience. In addition to their nightly news programs, they offer documentaries and news analysis. They’ve invested hundreds of millions of dollars in streaming operations.
The networks are optimistic that their streaming operations will eventually earn them a $3 billion profit. However, their critics have missed the rapid rate of adoption.
While CNN+ and Fox Nation have both proven that TV audiences will pay for their news content, their critics have missed the opportunity to experiment with the formula. This could result in polarized news coverage.
The new frontier in streaming news is already being filled with flags. New overtly political news operations are likely to enter the market. Other flags are being planted by Bloomberg, Cheddar, and Al Jazeera. These news services are a global presence, recognized for their journalistic standards, and are followed by millions of people around the world.
Streaming news is not only a welcome change for commercial-averse viewers who may not pay for television news, it’s also a way for cable news companies to earn a share of the $3 billion profit. However, many free news streamers are trying to promote cable-quality news.
