CINCINNATI, June 4, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Newsy, the
next-generation national news network, has added to its slate of
original news programming with "The Day Ahead," a new take on the
conventional weekday morning news show. Instead of pundits and
talking heads, the show sparks conversation about the day's biggest
headlines and stories that are underreported.
Produced live from Newsy's Chicago newsroom, "The Day Ahead" covers the
latest U.S. and world news, with host Devan
Kaney bringing light to issues through thoughtful
discussions with leaders across the country. Topics range from the
connection between incarceration rates and behavioral illness to
the anatomy of gangs and the #MeToo movement. View some of the
show's latest stories here.
The show's storytelling underscores Newsy's commitment to its
viewers as the news channel that delivers greater understanding of
the people and events shaping the world, said Newsy Vice President
of News and Programming Christina
Hartman.
"We know younger audiences are looking for alternatives to what
they see on cable news today," Hartman said. "They're looking for
substantive information from people who are close to the story as
well as close to their audiences. 'The Day Ahead' is real:
just-the-facts headlines and thoughtful conversations with real
people impacted by the news and policy."
The two-hour program features regularly occurring segments
including "Inside the Beltway," focusing on headlines from
Washington, D.C.; "Beyond
Borders," reporting international news; and "The Lab," a rundown of
the latest science news.
"The Day Ahead" airs weekdays from 7-9
a.m. Eastern on Newsy's live channel, available across the
leading cable providers and over-the-top platforms including
YouTube TV. Viewers can visit Newsy's channel finder here to find
