World Screen Expands Coverage of Factual, Format Sectors

Adding to its portfolio of genre-based newsletters, World Screen is launching TV Real Daily on June 1, exclusively focused on the world of unscripted.

This new daily service will deliver the latest news on lifestyle and factual-entertainment series, documentaries, non-scripted entertainment, game-show formats and more.

TV Real Daily hails from the same team behind the market-leading World Screen Newsflash, TV Kids Daily and TV Drama Daily. It joins an array of assets focused on the factual and formats businesses, including TV Real, TV Formats, TV Real Weekly, TV Formats Weekly, TV Formats Breaking News and TV Real Breaking News. It will be sent out to some 18,000 execs in the factual and format businesses at launch.

“The COVID-19 pandemic has led to a surge in interest in news, current affairs and entertainment programming,” says Mansha Daswani, editor and associate publisher of World Screen. “When content production begins to pick back up around the world as stay-at-home measures ease up, we expect non-scripted producers will be first out of the gate. TV Real Daily, launching this June, will be here to cover all the latest developments in the factual and format worlds, complementing a portfolio that includes TV Real, TV Formats and TV Formats Guide in print, TV Real Weekly, TV Formats Weekly and breaking news alerts, and our dedicated websites TVReal.ws and TVFormats.ws.”
