Viacom stations add teen news
A recent deal with Viacom stations in New York, Philadelphia, Dallas, Atlanta, Seattle, Miami and Providence, R.I., gives syndicated Teen Kids News coverage in 90% of the country.
Produced by Al Primo, creator of the Eyewitness News format, and former ABC producer Alan Weiss, the for-teens/by-teens weekly syndicated show enters its third season in September.
The show, produced in New York in partnership with Weekly Reader, is offered to stations on a barter basis, with stations receiving a 90-second window to cut in their own local teen-news features. Talent includes the offspring of Paula Zahn, Meredith Viera, and Frank and Kathie Lee Gifford.
