Fox News teams up with Yahoo

Cory Bergman December 4th, 2006

Fox News will provide video clips to Yahoo Finance as part of the news organization’s first portal deal. “We haven’t done anything like this before,” said Jeremy Steinberg, Fox News head of digital sales and development. “It’s a huge opportunity to drive awareness for Fox News, FoxNews.com and our business content.” The video will be highlighted on Yahoo Finance’s main page under the “Fox Business Now” heading. If you’re curious, the cable network says the Yahoo deal has nothing to do with plans to launch a business news channel.

    It’s great to see FNC really taking advantage of these opportunities to expand their digital content offerings. And even if the deal isn’t directly related to the proposed business channel, I’m sure it will be a good learning experience and will help further establish FNC’s business cred.

    the mere mention that “the Yahoo! deal has nothing to do with plans to launch a business news channel” really means it has EVERYTHING to do with the launch.

    kinda like the announcement last week that cbs’ youtube clips had nothing to do with an increase in tv viewers.

    get real.
