INDIA’S BAG FILM AND MEDIA TO LAUNCH ENGLISH NEWS WEBSITE

December 27th 2007 23:12

India’s BAG Films & Media Ltd will soon roll out an English news website called www.News24online.com to supplement the recent launch of its 24-hour Hindi news channel, News24channel.
Agencyfaqs! reports that News24online will feature regional, national and international news in both text and video formats. Most of the news will be sourced from its news channel and various news agencies, while the videos will be taken from the TV channel only.
Hemant Kumar, head of BAG Convergence, says, “Initially, the site will be in English, but later, the Hindi language will be added. The site will also have content related to lifestyle, movies, technology, shopping, spirituality and health.

“The site and news channel will supplement each other as the site will cater to the audience which does not have access to the news channel and vice versa.”
There are also plans to offer live video streaming of news which will let visitors watch the news as it is broadcast on News24.
The site will have user generated content in the form of a citizen journalism section where people can create blogs and write on contemporary issues.
