Bloomberg Media and Twitter have announced that they are launching a 24/7 breaking news network that will be global, live, social and streaming.
“Today’s global news consumer wants and needs more than what's currently available. In an era when most viewers are choosing immediacy over quality in breaking news, traditional media hasn’t kept up. With this new network, we are setting out to reinvent the digital breaking news experience. The powerful combination of Bloomberg’s high-quality journalism and data-backed objectivity with Twitter’s global immediacy, interactivity and reach will create the world's fastest and most credible modern news source,” said Bloomberg Media CEO Justin B. Smith.
