CNN Wire Store Is No More

The CNN Wire Store, a commercial self-service online storefront for wire stories that launched last September, was shut down about six weeks ago, with no positions being eliminated.

It was launched as an extension of the news network’s subscription wire services, and its customers didn’t see the value in it, preferring the original offering. CNN Wire Store enabled customers to browse through selected articles, fill a cart for review, and download story content on-demand.

“We found that there was more value for our clients in the subscription CNN Wire service and are focused on that,” Nigel Pritchard of CNN Worldwide public relations said.
