(Reuters) - AT&T-owned WarnerMedia will launch a new subscription streaming video news service in the first quarter of 2022, the company said Monday, as WarnerMedia prepares to join forces with Discovery as part of a proposed new company the telecom and media giants announced in May.
The CNN+ news service - which will exist separately from cable channels CNN, CNN international, CNN en Español and news and true crime channel HLN - is geared toward “CNN superfans, news junkies and fans of quality non-fiction programming,” the company said in a press release.
