NBC News on Wednesday became the latest company to launch a streaming news network for people who want to get up-to-date information online rather than on TV.
The company announced that it is launching NBC News Signal, a streaming video news channel, which will appear on NBCNews.com, internet TV apps, YouTube, Twitter and PlutoTV, a free bundle of online channels.
By mid-2019, the network will run 24 hours a day and seven days a week, though some features have already begun.
