"That's the reason we're adding Newsmax TV to the rich blend of channels we're making available and we're pleased to do so, especially because of its focus on the early presidential campaigns. We know that topic is one our subscribers are watching closely."
"We think Newsmax TV's coverage of the issues, news and events and our informed commentary offer something for everyone, and so we're happy to be available via YipTV," Newsmax Media CEO Christopher Ruddy said.
