Haystack TV Partners With ABC to Expand Coverage

The network will be completely rolled out in December

Haystack TV, which bills itself as the “Netflix for news,” is adding ABC News to its lineup.

The national network will join more than 200 other content providers on the ad-supported platform, including Meredith, Hearst, Scripps and Cheddar. On the platform, users can watch personalized local and national news clips based on where they live and their interests.

“With the death of a lot of the newspapers, we want, especially younger audiences, to have the access to good, quality news coverage,” said Haystack TV co-founder Daniel Barreto.

Haystack TV hopes to further achieve this with its ABC partnership, which will allow Haystack TV, it claims, to offer coverage from 85 percent of the country.
