Gulf Spill Lifts Live Video Viewing For CNN.com

The Gulf oil spill has fueled a heavy flood of live video viewing for CNN.com, as viewers flocked to the news site last month for its ongoing coverage of the disaster.

CNN.com delivered a total of 13 million live video streams in June, during which it provided a constant live feed of the spill from an underwater camera. That’s up from the eight million video views the site served in May and way up from the roughly two to three million live views per month the site averaged earlier in the year.
