On January 1, 2023, Newsy disappeared. That’s not to say the channel focused on in-depth news reporting, minus political commentary, went away. Rather, it was rebranded as Scripps News, a sign that The E.W. Scripps Co., with its roots in the newspaper business, was further committing to delivery of information and the day’s top stories for a television audience.
Now, Scripps is putting more fuel into Scripps News as it seeks to further attract audiences from not only over-the-air choices but also a reinvigorated NewsNation at a time when CNN and FOX News may each be at their most vulnerable.
