News Now, or just Now, is a Portuguese news channel, owned by the Medialivre group. It competes against RTP3, SIC Notícias and CNN Portugal.[1][2] The channel launched[3] on 17 June 2024.[4]
History
The brand was filed with the National Institute of Industrial Property (INPI)[5] on February 20 with an application for registration that is currently “awaiting opposition”. According to the INPI website, the process was set to be completed by May 2.
On March 5, Medialivre opened a new studio with the aim of creating a new television channel.[6]
The channel was presented to the public on May 3, 2024.[7] In that same presentation, the definitive News Now logo was revealed, the O of the logo resembles the logo that the defunct Canal Nou had between 2005 and October 2013, as well as the O of the Italian channel Nove.
The Now channel starts “in the first half of the year” according to Luís Santana, who explains the reason for the name of the new information channel, which will be in position nine on the MEO, NOS and Vodafone Portugal platforms. The name is explained as "News" because of the primary content of the channel and "Now" because the channel's claim is the "exact news at the right time”. The news bulletins will have a length of fifteen minutes.[8]
Now signed an agreement with Euronews in early June 2024 for the broadcast and production of news items between both channels. The channel also removed the word "News" from its logo ahead of launch.[9]
