Relaunch For Channel One

Relaunch For Channel One

Cable television channel Channel One has teamed up with the Press Association to provide what they describe as a “truly local” news service. The cable company will recruit five PA journalists who will supply local news for the London regions in which the company broadcasts. Channel One argues that there is a gap in the market for 24-hour local news which it intends to fill.

Channel One will also appear in a multi-screen format featuring video and text. In addition to local news focusing on the six regions of the cable station’s franchise, the PA will also provide London based headline news, sports headlines and a What’s On section.
