Network 10’s 10 News First has signed a broadcast partnership deal with digital news site The New Daily.
The New Daily will broadcast 10 News First video news stories, news updates, and breaking news on its website platform and distribute them daily to its 700,000 subscribers.
The 10 News First video content will be enabled through JW Player, allowing both parties to commercialise the video with pre and post roll advertising.
“We’re excited to partner with The New Daily and work together in delivering news as it happens, across multiple platforms,” says 10 News First head of digital news & strategy Rashell Habib.
Similar broadcasting arrangements with state-based local content have also been secured for The New Daily’s sister sites in Adelaide, www.InDaily.com.au, and Queensland, www.InQueensland.com.au. All sites are operated by Solstice Media.
“Our readers also want video content around local, national and world events to complement their online experience,” says Solstice Media managing director Paul Hamra.
“10 News First was the perfect partner as it does not publish its own digital news service.
“So, it is a win-win for us and for the 10 News First brand to amplify its content to our news-hungry audience and for The New Daily to enhance its offering to readers.”
