One of the most exciting trends in digital technology is the growing number of people who watch current news online. This new way of consuming media reflects a convergence of long-term cultural trends.
Streaming has enabled the delivery of news in a timely, customizable manner. Unlike television, it allows viewers to watch news anywhere, at any time. Streaming has also proven to attract niche audiences.
Many of the major news networks have entered the streaming market. They’ve invested hundreds of millions of dollars in this new business. These networks offer reruns of their broadcast programs, news analysis, documentaries, and regular nightly news shows. The vast majority of their viewers are under 45.
As they enter the news streaming field, these networks are trying to make a difference in the media equation. Previously, consumers were frustrated by high-cost products and a lack of quality. It’s a dilemma that has motivated innovators to solve it.
Free news streamers, whose style resembles that of cable, are hoping to lure TV audiences away from traditional channels. In exchange, they would like to share a slice of the $3 billion profit they are expected to make.
Some of the biggest names in the streaming industry have been in the business for a decade or more. They include NBC News, CNN, MSNBC, Fox, and CBS.
These broadcasters have long been profitable businesses. However, they have failed to capture the audience that streaming news has attracted. Moreover, the streaming model may result in siloing.
