iflix users across the Philippines can now access a full roster of CNN Philippines programs live—from hourly news and current affairs programs to multi-awarded sports, documentary and international shows on the iflix CNN Philippines channel – available to users for free on iflixFREE and iflixVIP.
CNN Philippines President Armie Jarin-Bennett says that the partnership with iflix is a timely move to service a viewership whose consumption habits are rapidly switching to mobile. “We at CNN Philippines do our best to provide fair, accurate and balanced news and information not just on TV, but through other forms of media as well. This partnership with iflix is a very exciting step in our goal to be the trusted name in news—not just on-air, but online as well.”
Commenting on the value of delivering the news straight to its subscribers, Sherwin de la Cruz, iflix Philippines Co-founder and Country Manager said: “We are thrilled to partner with CNN Philippines to deliver timely, comprehensive and relevant news to our users around the country. In an online environment saturated with fake, headline grabbing click-bait, our customers want immediate access to the real stories and events shaping their world. With iflix NEWS, we work with the most trusted and reputable networks, like CNN to deliver news and current affairs with an exceptional user experience, completely on their own terms.”
