NakedNews Goes From Web To TV

(Mis)Uses of Technology

from the good-for-them dept

One of my favorite sites, the Naked News, is making a big jump. They claim (which may or may not be true) that they’re the first web streaming show to switch from the web to cable TV. They’re going to start airing a 45 minute broadcast on some pay-per-view stations. The show (if you didn’t already know) features news casters who read the news to you while they strip off all of their clothes. They currently say they have almost two-thirds of CNN’s traffic on their website. It is, not surprisingly, amazingly popular with young men – who don’t often watch news programs.
