Fox News Channel and SiriusXM have announced the launch of Fox News Headlines 24/7, a new national headline news service and full-time satellite radio channel produced by FNC journalists and contributors. The channel, which is part of a mutli-year agreement, will launch to all SiriusXM subscribers in the fall of 2015 on channel 115.
“By creating this new news offering, we’re aiming to provide Fox News viewers and satellite radio subscribers the opportunity to stay informed with the latest headlines and breaking news from the network they have come to rely on and trust,” Fox News CEO Roger Ailes said.
“This new news channel is the first of its kind in radio. It’s original, around-the-clock news produced by Fox News exclusively for SiriusXM subscribers, not a simulcast of Fox programming. Fox’s loyal audience and our national audience will now be able to stay informed of breaking news wherever and whenever they choose,” SiriusXM president and COO Scott Greenstein said.
FNC svp Jay Wallace will oversee the channel, in addition to his current responsibilities managing news at FNC. The launch of Fox News Headlines 24/7 means there will be a wide range of opportunity for multi-media journalists and emerging talent… so get your resumes ready.
