Streaming news has proven to be a definite game changer in the world of video news. It sets a new standard in media delivery, making video news ubiquitous. The major news networks have been investing hundreds of millions of dollars in streaming operations. They have found a niche audience, one that will likely pay for content.
One of the first to enter this new field was Fox. The network has attracted 1.5 million subscribers for its Fox Nation streaming app.
Another major player is CBS, which is now putting out local streams of the Sacramento shooting, Pittsburgh bridge collapse, and the Grammys. It has plans to beam 45,000 hours of local news in 2022.
In addition to local news, the networks also offer news analysis, documentaries, reruns, and more. The streaming models of the three major networks are similar to their traditional cable offerings, but they have a technological advantage.
The streaming model gives viewers the ability to customize the content they watch. Streamers can watch news on their computers, tablets, and smartphones, as well as on television. It also allows them to view the news on demand, rather than wait for it to be broadcast. This also makes building a library of news affordable and efficient.
In addition to the major streaming networks, Cheddar, Newsy, and Newsmax have planted flags in the streaming frontier. This new business has been a success, and more players will likely enter this space in the coming years.
