AOL Announces it Will Launch Huffington Post Live Streaming Network

  • AOL’s Huffington Post announced it plans to create a 100-member newsroom to produce a video-news channel.
  • The company says it will feature 12 hours of live content, five days a week. The new streaming network is expected to launch later this year.
  • Plans include a highly interactive site that involves the audience more than we’ve seen in the past, including programs called “Defend Your Comment” and “Write the Headline.”
  • The news channel will include a live stream of comments posted via Facebook, Twitter and the website. Other AOL entities, such as TechCrunch and its Patch sites, are also expected to contribute content.
  • “Founding editor Roy Sekoff, who will be leading the network, described the programming as a series of liveĀ and interactive clips covering everything from entertainment to politics,” reports SocialTimes.
