GlobeCast WorldTV Expands, Launches Armenian Russian Channel ARTN in U.S.

 

WASHINGTON, D.C., Jan. 26, 2007/Satnews Daily/ ― GlobeCast WorldTV, a distributor of international television and radio programming in America, has launched ARTN, the first 24-hour Armenian and Russian language television network in the United States.

 

The new channel will be distributed directly to consumers throughout the United States as part of GlobeCast WorldTV’s European bouquet, which also includes channels from 14 European countries including Italy, Poland and Romania.

 

Produced live from ARTN’s Los Angeles studio, the free-to-air service will offer the rapidly expanding Russian and Armenian communities in the U.S. a wide variety of cultural and entertainment programs including travel, fashion, food, children’s programs, game shows and an every day broadcast of soap operas.

 

Due to Russia’s recent economic resurgence, there has been an increased global demand for Russian-speaking channels. However, in addition to Russian and Armenian, ARTN reaches a host of communities originating from neighbouring Eastern European countries, such as Belarus and the Ukraine.

 

GlobeCast WorldTV’s international programming via satellite in the U.S. now offers in excess of 200 global TV and radio channels, in more than 35 languages to 42 countries worldwide. GlobeCast WorldTV is a subsidiary of content management and delivery company GlobeCast.
