For the first time the Ten O'Clock News and Newsnight are being made available as
video podcasts for 大象传媒 News viewers to watch on the move as part of a 12-month
trial.
听
From now on viewers can download Ten Weekly - the best of the week's
Ten O'Clock News packages - as well as subscribe to top Newsnight
reports and investigations from the last week presented by the regular Newsnight
team.
听
Adrian Van Klaveren, Deputy Director of 大象传媒 News, says: "This trial aims to give people a range of great 大象传媒 News content that they can
enjoy watching in a completely different way on new portable devices."
听
This is part of a 大象传媒-wide 12-month trial offering some of the 大象传媒's best
journalism as video downloads.
听
Also available in the first phase of the trial
is STORYFix - which takes a high-speed tongue-in-cheek look at the last week's
news on the 大象传媒.
听
Adrian Van Klaveren adds: "We view video podcasting as a convenient way for our audiences to consume 大象传媒
News content at a time and place of their choosing - both established programmes
such as the Ten and Newsnight but also content they may not have come across such
as STORYFix."
听
Ten Weekly will be available every Wednesday; STORYFix and Newsnight will be
published on a Friday evening.
听
Later in the year, the trial continues with the addition of the highlights from
each week's Question Time and a new daily news briefing aimed at the morning
commuter.
听
Selected other non-news content will be available during the course
of the 12-month video podcast trial.
听
The first three video podcasts are now available at: bbc.co.uk/newspodcasts.
