It looks like folks on the go who want to keep up with news and information coming from WTVW-Fox 7 will soon have a new way of doing so.
Nexstar Broadcasting Group, which owns WTVW, has signed an agreement with LSN Mobile to provide wireless services to the company's stations, and viewers will be the beneficiaries.
The new services will include apps for iPhones, Blackberries, Droids and probably some others I don't know about yet. Users will be able to get news updates and see videos (on compatible devices) according to TVNewsCheck.
As of now, I've not been able to find a timetable for the debut of the new services, but with the fast pace of today's media environment, I think Nexstar will move quickly to roll this out, especially since many other station groups also have mobile apps, alerts and other offerings.
NOTE: In Indiana, in addition to WTVW, Nexstar also owns WFFT-Fox 55 in Fort Wayne and WTWO-Newschannel 2, the NBC affiliate in Terre Haute. The company also operates WFXW-Fox 38 in Terre Haute through a local marketing agreement.
