We\u2019re constantly looking at new ways of making Horizon even better and more relevant for customers and look forward to further developing our partnership with Twitter to deliver new cutting-edge social TV features on the platform.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Jana Messerschmidt, VP of global business development and platform at Twitter, said, &#8220;TV fans, influencers and the stars themselves are on Twitter talking about live TV shows as they unfold.
