Sat.1 Newstime to Run Social Justice Week

Sat.1's main newscast :newstime will dedicate the week beginning Monday, 3 August 2026, to social justice, running Monday–Friday with a different daily focus: City vs Country, Young vs Old, Men vs Women, Rich vs Poor, and East vs West. Reporter Elena Brächer opens the series from Prüm in Rhineland‑Palatinate, examining regional disparities and economic problems at the local hospital. Segments will also be available on the Joyn streaming service. ProSiebenSat.1 editor-in-chief Sven Pietsch said the series aims to illuminate different life realities and fulfil the broadcaster's editorial responsibility to support informed opinion-forming. :newstime is the cross-platform news brand of Seven.One Entertainment Group, produced in Unterföhring near Munich, and airs weekdays at 19:45.

Seven.One Media Brings Pause Ad to Live TV

Seven.One Media is extending its streaming 'Pause Ad' format—previously available only on the Joyn streaming platform—into live, addressable TV across ProSiebenSat.1 channels. The Pause Ad will appear as a ten-second fullscreen creative on internet-connected TVs (HbbTV) when viewers switch to a ProSiebenSat.1 channel, with the live picture reduced in the background and audio continuing. The format and the streaming placement are being sold together as the "Pause Creative Fullscreen Package." The first advertiser to use the combined offer is dairy brand Ehrmann, with Mediaplus buying the campaign for the Milk Twist launch; the campaign runs on Joyn and live CTV devices until August 23, 2026. Seven.One Media limits monthly campaign counts to preserve exclusivity.
