Yahoo! News today announced an expanded video content agreement with ABC News which increases the amount and visibility of ABC News video available on Yahoo! News. As the premier provider of video content to Yahoo! News, ABC News will provide expanded daily content packages that include breaking news stories across a variety of categories, as well as additional features and interviews, including video segments from "Good Morning America." The agreement is an extension of the current relationship between ABC News and Yahoo! News, which began in September 2005. All of the video will be available for free to Yahoo! users, and will be advertising-supported."Yahoo! News' relationship with ABC News has played an important role in offering our users the world's best journalism over the past year," said Scott Moore, head of news and information, Yahoo! Media Group. "Video streams on Yahoo! News have increased more than ten-fold over the past year, so we have no doubt that additional content from one of the most recognized brands in news will be met with great enthusiasm by our audience."
The ABC News video will continue to be integrated throughout Yahoo! News (http://news.yahoo.com ), including on its front page, within relevant story pages, and in other special sections of the site.
"We are thrilled to be the premier content provider for one of the leading online global resources," said Bernard Gershon, senior vice president and general manager, ABC News Digital Group. "At ABC News, our digital strategy is to have the most trusted and up-to-the minute news content available to consumers anywhere, anytime, on any device. This expansion further emphasizes our commitment, as well as Yahoo!'s, to providing consumers with exactly that."
