NBCUniversal Plans Mobile-First News Subscription Service for Late 2025

The premium service will focus on video content and cater to younger, digital-first audiences with live streams, on-demand programming, and podcasts.

NBCUniversal News Group Chairman Cesar Conde announced plans for a subscription-based news service targeting a fourth-quarter 2025 launch.
The service will emphasize short-form and long-form video content, designed for mobile consumption and younger audiences who increasingly rely on digital platforms like TikTok and YouTube for news.
The offering will feature nearly two dozen live streams in English and Spanish, original video content from NBC News talent, and on-demand access to programs like 'Today' and 'Meet the Press.'
It will also provide access to NBC News' podcast library and lifestyle-focused programming, including true crime and international news content.
NBCUniversal's move follows a broader industry trend as traditional news outlets, including CNN and CBS News, expand their digital and streaming services to remain relevant in a shifting media landscape.
