"Until now, customers coming to Prime Video for news could watch breaking news live or tune into full-length on-demand programs. But not everyone can catch breaking news the moment it happens," said Brian Griffin, head of global app experience at Prime Video. "With News Clips, customers have a quick and easy way to get caught up on the latest stories happening in their neighborhood and around the world. Combined with our extensive lineup of free 24/7 live news, Prime Video is becoming a truly comprehensive destination for news."
The dedicated news destination is accessible to all U.S. customers. It can easily be found in the top navigation of the Prime Video app, which works on thousands of devices and is free for all Amazon customers in the U.S.
We'll continue to enhance the news experience, expand our selection, and add features designed for convenient, on-demand viewing that make it easy for customers to stay informed.
