TuneIn and NBCUniversal News Group are expanding their partnership as the live-streaming audio service announced in a press release obtained by Barrett News Media new details between the two parties.
As part of the expansion, the partnership will include NBC News’ three new streaming news networks, NBC News NOW, Dateline 24/7 and TODAY All Day.
“NBC News has been an important source of information for Americans since the original days of radio,” Richard Stern, CEO of TuneIn, said. “We are proud to continue this historic tradition by providing listeners in the streaming age with heightened access to this content.
“From true crime with Dateline to the breaking stories of the day, this partnership ensures that TuneIn listeners will have constant access to the information and stories they want and need to hear.”
Additionally, coming in Spring 2023, the new audio channels will be available to stream within the NBC News app, which TuneIn is going to be powering.
“Audio has become an increasingly significant way for audiences to engage with NBC News content,” Tiffany Sam Chow, NBCU News Group’s Senior Vice President of Strategy and Business Development, said.
“With this expanded partnership, we’re broadening the reach of our iconic brands and world-class journalism and meeting consumers wherever they are.”
