Employees at CNN are preparing to launch a new streaming service, CNN+, later this month after one of the most tumultuous periods in the news organization’s history.
Zucker and Gollust were deeply involved in the development of CNN+. Even before the scandal erupted, it was uncertain whether WarnerMedia’s new owners at Discovery, which is set to close its acquisition of WarnerMedia in April, would accept CNN’s existing plan.Chris Licht
CNN+ is scheduled to launch during the last week in March. Initially, the service will be offered for $2.99 a month, a rate locked in for life as long as the account is active. When that deal expires, CNN+ will be available for $5.99 a month, the same price as the Fox News streaming service Fox Nation.
But getting consumers to pay for a separate news streaming channel will be a high hurdle, especially as some existing services such as NBCUniversal’s Peacock and Paramount+ include news as part of their offerings. The proliferation of streaming services is already testing the elasticity of household budgets, and not every entrant is going to survive.
Cable news operations are heavily dependent on revenue from pay TV operators, and every time a household decides to drop or forgo a subscription, that money goes away. While the streaming services provided by Fox News and CNN can’t exactly replicate what they do on cable, they at the very least need to become viable placeholders in preparation for the day down the road when cable is no longer viable.The network has plenty of visibility with the online audience. CNN had 191.
“There’s no other brand, with the possible exception of the BBC, that resonates globally the way CNN does,” Morse said. Other daily programs include “The Source With Kasie Hunt,” where the former NBC News correspondent will analyze Washington issues; “The Big Picture,” with peripatetic correspondent Sara Sidner going deep into a single story; and “Go There,” an anchor-free show that draws on reports from correspondents around the world.
