Pluto TV Adds Global & Local News Across Europe, U.K. & Canada – TVREAL
Pluto TV has launched several global and local news channels from CBC News/Radio-Canada, CNN and Reuters in select European territories, the U.K. and Canada.
CNN International has become available in the U.K., Germany, Switzerland and Austria, and CNN Fast has debuted in those same countries, as well as Canada, France, Italy and Spain. A Reuters FAST channel is also now available in Canada, the U.K. and the Nordics.
Next month in Canada, Pluto TV will launch CBC News Explore, CBC News Toronto, CBC News British Columbia and Radio-Canada Info.
CNN International provides global news alongside a range of business, travel, technology and lifestyle programming from around the world. Ahead of the U.S. election on November 5, viewers will be able to follow the campaign trail during its final critical weeks, including coverage of the Presidential Debate.
CNN Fast is a curated channel of short-form videos, offering viewers quick-paced, internationally focused CNN content across entertainment, business, sports and major news events.
Reuters provides fast, accurate and unbiased news from every corner of the globe. Its launch on Pluto TV will give audiences in the U.K., the Nordics and Canada access to one of the most trusted news sources.
CBC News British Columbia and CBC News Toronto provide coverage of major breaking news, weather, headlines and local stories. CBC News Explore, meanwhile, goes beyond the headlines and takes a deeper dive into topics, including with the daily program About That with Andrew Chang.
Radio-Canada Info (French-language) offers a lineup of newscasts, features and current affairs shows covering topics ranging from the environment and the arts to sports and social issues, allowing viewers to keep up with the top stories in French-speaking Canada.
“With the debut of CBC/Radio-Canada, CNN Fast, CNN International and Reuters on Pluto TV, we are providing both global and local news coverage to our fans, connecting our audiences with every community they belong to,” said Katrina Kowalski, senior VP of international content programming and acquisitions at Pluto TV. “By expanding our local, geo-targeted news offerings, we ensure our viewers remain updated on the most important global news, but also on what happens within their communities, enhancing their viewing experience with timely content and getting one step closer to our mission to entertain the planet.”
