RNN DOS online - Television live
RNN DOS Live Stream
RNN2, on Canal 67, is the second channel of the Red Nacional de Noticias, the Dominican Republic's national news network, broadcasting from Santo Domingo alongside the main RNN on Canal 27.
The second news channel
RNN2 belongs to the same operation that runs the rnn.com.do digital newspaper and Canal 27. The second channel carries additional news editions, current-affairs programmes and analysis formats, which lets the network put parliamentary coverage, sport and long discussion on air at the same time as its main bulletin.
Splitting a news network in two
Running two channels from one newsroom is cheaper than running two networks: the reporters, the studios and the satellite feeds are shared, and the second frequency carries material the main channel cannot fit. It also lets the network sell advertising across both.
The Dominican news agenda
Politics, electricity, education, health and relations with Haiti dominate, with baseball filling the winter months. A national news network covers the whole country from the capital, with correspondents in Santiago and the provincial capitals.
Canal 67 and the stream
RNN2 broadcasts on Canal 67 and streams through rnn.com.do, reaching the Dominican audience at home and the diaspora abroad.
