Cable TV has one-upped broadcast news for decades. With live events, you could watch the latest breaking news as it happens. But now it has all become more convenient and sharable.
Online video streaming could soon reshape political news coverage. Its accessibility means viewers can choose to view it anywhere. Plus, it doesn’t have to abide by expensive negotiations with cable companies. Streaming networks could serve a wide range of audiences and still be a profitable business.
Several news networks sensed an opportunity in the streaming market. They invested hundreds of millions of dollars in new streaming operations. The resulting programs range from documentaries to reruns. Some offer news analysis, while others serve as a source for local news.
Streaming isn’t the only form of video delivery, though. You can find a host of free, commercial-free options online. For example, PR Newswire offers journalist tools and a multi-channel content distribution network. These allow journalists to target targeted audiences.
Free news streamers advertise cable-quality news. However, they are actually trying to lure people away from their cable subscription. In turn, they want a piece of the $3 billion profit.
Streaming news has the potential to be more effective than cable in the long run. While the technology may be new, its long-term advantages are already attracting mass audiences.
For instance, NBC News Now claims that it has a total of 100 million monthly video views. It provides 10 hours of programming per day.
