ABC News Live Directory Profile
This State of Streaming directory entry profiles ABC News Live, a free 24/7 streaming news channel owned by The Walt Disney Company. The listing identifies ABC News Live's headquarters as New York, NY and its founding year as 2018, and describes the service as offering live anchored coverage, breaking news and special event programming. The page includes links to the channel's website and the broader Disney corporate family (Disney Advertising DSP, Disney Junior, Disney+, ESPN, Hulu, Star+). State of Streaming notes there is currently "No coverage yet" for ABC News Live on its site.
Directory listing of a major publisher's CTV app matters to AdTech because ABC News Live represents ad-supported streaming inventory and a Disney-owned publisher presence in the CTV/OTT ecosystem, but the entry itself provides descriptive metadata rather than new product, policy, or financial developments.
