CINCINNATI, May 8, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Newsy, the news network for the next generation, announced a live news program, "The Why," and a slate of other new original programming and advertising offerings at its NewFront event in New York City.
Newsy Vice President of News Christina Hartman unveiled plans for "The Why," a two-hour nightly news show set to launch this summer. The program is a continuation of Newsy's commitment to in-depth storytelling and marks the next step in the company's expansion into longer-form TV programming.
"With 'The Why,' we're going beyond the surface of the day's major news and connecting the events to deep context," said Hartman. "The live show will be unlike anything you see on television today: a more insightful newscast that delivers on our audience's desires for transparency, factual reporting and the why behind the news."
Chance Seales, a veteran news and political reporter, will host "The Why," joining a team of dedicated reporters and producers in creating the show from Newsy's bureaus in Chicago; Washington, D.C.; and Columbia, Missouri. (View the trailer for "The Why" here.)
"The Why" is the next iteration of Newsy's linear product, Newsy Live, which is available on many of the top streaming video platforms, including Sling TV, as well as cable through a partnership with Cincinnati Bell. Eighty percent of Newsy Live's viewers are 18-54, a demographic difficult to capture via traditional TV news shows.
Hartman also announced three new original series coming in summer 2017 (view trailer here):
In addition to content announcements, Newsy presented details about its new Newsy Plus service, which enables advanced targeting for advertisers in the over-the-top video ecosystem. By bringing together data points including demographics, purchase intent, psychographics and device preferences, and layering in Newsy's own viewership data, Newsy Plus paints a full picture of how its users consume content and allows advertisers to target them in places they're most engaged.
"Video advertising is ripe for innovation, and Newsy is leading the way by delivering the rich data our partners are seeking," said Blake Sabatinelli, general manager for Newsy. "Newsy Plus offers marketers an unmatched view into how their content is performing and allows us to refine an experience over time to maximize the value of ad dollars in the over-the-top ecosystem."
Newsy is one of the most-watched news channels across popular streaming video platforms, with 1.3 billion views in 2016 and average viewing sessions upward of 37 minutes on Newsy Live. Newsy is a wholly owned subsidiary of The E.W. Scripps Company (NYSE: SSP).
