NEW YORK – CaribbeanWorldNews (CWN) has debuted across 26 islands in the Caribbean.
CWN has reached a deal with Tempo TV to power the Tempo News cast across their Caribbean platform. The daily newscast recently began airing across the Tempo TV channel in 26 Caribbean countries, reaching over 2.5 million people.
The TV deal is an extension of the online news partnership between the two entities, which dates back to Tempo`s launch in 2005.
`This partnership marks another step in the CaribbeanWorldNews Network`s growth as a credible Caribbean news organization and allows us to truly fulfill our goal of being the pulse of Caribbean nationals worldwide,` said CWN founder, Felicia Persaud. `The Tempo deal combined with our radio syndication across the US, our online reach daily and our New York TV newscast on Whatz Up TV places us in an enviable position, thanks to our many valued partners and loyal readers.`
`CWN`s powering of the Tempo newscast allows us to now reach millions per month in both the Caribbean Diaspora and the region and that allows us to offer companies looking to target these markets a lot more than other media houses,` added Chris Chaplin, VP at CWN`s parent company, Hard Beat Communications, who brokered the deal.
`With this agreement, it is a pleasure to continue and strengthen our partnership with Caribbean World News, a company that like Tempo is committed to the upliftment of the Caribbean and Caribbean people by providing them on all possible platforms with relevant and current information about our community,` said Frederick (`Mr. Tempo`) Morton ,Jr., Founder, Chairman and CEO, Tempo Networks, LLC.
