The relaunch
Mutual Broadcast News once reached more than 400 affiliate stations. Now it's coming back, rebuilt from the ground up by founder Leo Ashcraft on technology he built himself, so any station can sign up and carry it without a service call.
Network news at the top of every hour, ready for your automation, and free to commercial stations.
Everything a station needs to run a professional newscast every hour.
1-, 3- and 5-minute newscasts at the top of every hour. Pick the length that fits your clock.
When a big story can't wait for the top of the hour, a bulletin is ready to air.
Every hour brings a new newscast, led by the biggest story of the hour.
Opener, anchor intro and closer: the sound of a real network newscast, broadcast-ready and at a consistent level.
One copy-and-paste command for Windows or Mac. It works with whatever automation you already run.
Commercial stations carry Mutual free, with a network spot position in each newscast. LPFM and full-power NCE stations can't air barter spots, so they subscribe instead.
No satellite dish, no installer and no service call. If your station has a Windows or Mac computer with internet access, it can carry Mutual.
Tell us about your station. You get a private download link of your own.
Copy one line for Windows or Mac and paste it in once. That's the whole setup.
The newest newscast is waiting in a folder every hour. Schedule it in your automation, whatever system you run.
News you can put on the air
Straight, fact-first newscasts your station can put on the air with confidence. Every story is built from verifiable sources and checked before it airs.
Mutual Broadcast News launches soon. Apply now and your station will be among the first on the air.
