Fox News channel is planning to launch a new subscription-based streaming service called Fox Nation that would offer commentary-and-opinion programming to "superfans" of the network even when popular prime-time hosts like Sean Hannity and Tucker Carlson are not on the air.
Fox News was expected to announce the new stand-along service on Tuesday, according to a report in The New York Times. A Fox News spokesman declined to comment on the report.
Executives did not detail the cost of a subscription or outline specific hosts who would appear via the new service.
In launching the new service, Fox News is joining the parade of traditional media companies seeking to offer new subscription-based options to catch some of the consumer herd migrating to on-demand streaming video.
