Streaming news has become one of the most important cultural trends of the last two decades. It sets aside decades of kindling around linear television by providing fast news and customized experiences.
Streaming news has proven to attract niche audiences. It has also set the stage for new and overtly political news operations. The streaming news business has created kindling for innovators as frustrated consumers drive new players into the field.
The news networks saw a technological advantage in serving a streaming audience. They invested hundreds of millions of dollars in their streaming operations.
The major news networks have high hopes for the business. Fox, CNN, and MSNBC earned a combined profit of $3 billion in 2020.
Streaming news also makes it possible for networks to archive content. Its time-shifting capabilities allow viewers to watch programming when they want. In addition, viewers spend more time watching streaming programming than they do watching broadcast TV.
While the major news networks have high hopes for the streaming business, they need to be careful not to overhype the technology. Free news streamers are essentially telling viewers they can cut their cable subscriptions. Commercial-averse viewers may prefer to switch channels. In the end, these new choices could feed polarization in the audience.
The news section on the CASE Global Reporting Standards website features links to local newspapers, radio stations, and TV stations. It also includes a country list that provides local news from around the world.
