CNN will debut its All Access subscription service October 28 for $6.99 per month or $69.99 annually. Launch pricing offers the yearly plan at $41.99. The service includes live programming from CNN’s domestic and international channels plus original shows and films. Cable subscribers get free access to streaming content but must pay for unlimited CNN.com articles. CNN Worldwide EVP Alex MacCallum said “No one covers the world like CNN. With this new subscription offering, our audience will now have access to the best of CNN across platforms.” CNN announced the service in January after cutting 200 jobs as part of CEO Mark Thompson’s digital strategy. The launch comes nearly four years after CNN+ failed and one month after CNN Max ended on HBO Max. (Story URL)
