News Now or just Now is an upcoming Portuguese news channel, owned by the Medialivre group. It will be a news channel, competing against SIC Notícias and CNN Portugal for viewers.[1][2] The channel is scheduled to launch in 2024[3] by the end of June.[4]
History
The brand was filed with the National Institute of Industrial Property (INPI)[5] on February 20 with an application for registration that is currently “awaiting opposition”. According to the INPI website, the process was set to be completed by May 2.
On March 5, Medialivre opened a new studio with the aim of creating a new television channel.[6]
The channel was presented to the public on May 3, 2024.[7] In that same presentation, the definitive News Now logo was revealed, the O of the logo resembles the logo that the defunct Canal Nou had between 2005 and October 2013, as well as the O of the Italian channel Nove.
The Now channel starts “in the first half of the year” according to Luís Santana, who explains the reason for the name of the new information channel, which will be in position nine on the MEO, NOS and Vodafone Portugal platforms. The name is explained as "News" because of the primary content of the channel and "Now" because the channel's claim is the "exact news at the right time”. The news bulletins will have a length of fifteen minutes.[8]
