BET expands news, taps APs ENPS

Black Entertainment Television has selected Associated Press' Electronic News Production System (ENPS) as its newsroom computer system.

The ENPS purchase coincides with a major expansion of news programming from BET's Washington studios. The network will launch a half-hour news program this fall. Programs slated to be produced using ENPS are BET Tonight With Tavis Smiley, Lead Story, Heart & Soul, Teen Summit and Madd Sports.
