A major distribution agreement signed with ‘La 10’ opens euronews to over 17
million homes in Spain. ‘La 10’ is a national digital channel operated by
Vocento, Spain’s #1 communications group, which also produces the national daily ABC.
17 million Spanish homes will be able to watch euronews on ‘La 10’ for one and a half hours every day starting Friday 29 April. From Monday to Friday the international news channel will be broadcast three times a day: from 7.00 to 7.30, 9.00 to 9.30 and 14.30 to 15.00 and on Saturdays and Sundays from 10.00 to 10.30, 14.30 to 15.00 and 01.00 to 01.30.
With euronews, viewers of ‘La 10’ will be able to follow international news from a pan-European perspective. Every broadcast on ‘La 10′ will include a European and world weather bulletin as well as euronews’ emblematic programme: ‘No Comment’, the day’s headlines presented in images and without comment.
Thanks to this agreement, euronews will increase its presence in Spain (where it is already available on every paying television platform) and open a new door to national digital terrestrial television for free at a time when international news is making big headlines.
This agreement was signed shortly after and extensively covered press conference in Madrid on 8 February 2011 during which euronews revealed a number of changes, including the opening of its international news correspondent offices, a new and improved programme schedule and the arrival of some well-known presenters.
