YouTube TV Enhances Viewing Experience with New Channels
YouTube TV is making waves in the streaming world by announcing a long-term carriage agreement with Herring Networks, Inc. This exciting partnership will see the addition of two flagship channels—
One America News (OAN) and
A Wealth of Entertainment (AWE)—to YouTube TV's base package. Set to launch in the fourth quarter of 2025, this move aims to broaden the choices available to subscribers nationwide, offering both live news coverage and premium entertainment.
Expanding Choices for Viewers
With this new deal, OAN will deliver
16 hours of live, breaking news coverage every weekday, allowing viewers to stay in touch with the latest headlines and significant events as they unfold. Meanwhile, AWE will bring a diverse slate of entertainment programming, including travel, lifestyle, and adventure shows that appeal to a wide audience.
Richard Levine, President of Distribution for OAN and AWE, expressed his enthusiasm, saying, "We're excited to bring OAN and AWE to YouTube TV's ever-growing community of subscribers. This partnership makes it easier than ever for viewers nationwide to connect with our networks— from in-depth news reporting to inspiring entertainment."
Justin Connolly, Vice President and Global Head of Media at YouTube, echoed this excitement, highlighting that the goal has always been to provide users with an extensive range of content. "This partnership gives One America News access to our growing audience, while also giving our subscribers even more choice when it comes to news and entertainment," he said.
Significant Developments at OAN
As OAN gears up for its inclusion in YouTube TV, the network is also ramping up its operations. Starting in early 2025, OAN plans to unveil a brand-new broadcast studio located in California. This studio will be the home of
The Matt Gaetz Show, hosted by former Florida Congressman Matt Gaetz, who will air each weeknight in the prized 9 PM Eastern time slot.
In addition to expanding its California operations, OAN is establishing a new presence in Washington, D.C., with dedicated studio space at the Pentagon, allowing for daily live reports and enhanced coverage of critical national events. The network's commitment to delivering
16 hours of live breaking news every weekday means that viewers can expect timely updates from the White House, Capitol Hill, and other vital locations.
Furthermore, OAN features four prominent prime-time political talk shows to enrich its offerings, providing viewers with analysis and debates on pressing issues.
About the Networks
Launched on July 4, 2013, One America News Network is dedicated to providing a reliable source of U.S. and international news around the clock. With news bureaus situated in Washington, D.C., and California, OAN ensures comprehensive reporting. In addition to in-house coverage, the network collaborates with various external news-gathering sources, including US Pool feeds, the Associated Press, and Reuters.
On the other hand, A Wealth of Entertainment, which debuted in June 2004, has distinguished itself as one of the first all HD channels focused on thematic programming. AWE offers viewers an escape into visually stunning travel destinations, luxury cars, beautiful homes, and much more.
