ABC News Teams With Facebook to Air 24-Hour Coverage of GOP Convention
About 22 hours more than necessary.
This might be overkill, but ABC News is teaming up with Facebook to provide 24-hour coverage of the Republican National Convention, which starts today.
According to Variety, ABC News will air the content across a few of its pages. Just how, exactly, will ABC News fill 24-hours of coverage? When there isn’t someone speaking at the convention, there will be “live video of on-the-scene interviews, protests and other breaking news.”
“Our live-stream strategy is all about bringing users a wide variety of unique moments they may not otherwise see on television,” Colby Smith, ABC News vp of digital, told Variety.
