Treemo Labs Launches 13 Local CBS Stations on the iPhone
New apps feature local news, video, weather, national CBS news and Twitter updates from CBS and users globally.
As news unfolds throughout the day, the new application will make available the latest articles, slide shows, and videos being gathered by CBS news crews around the world. Each of the 13 versions of the app delivers the latest local news headlines and stories, full-length on-demand video, slide shows, and Twitter updates from station news anchors and reporters. In addition to dedicated local content, the apps connect users with breaking CBS News stories and on-demand video from across the US and the world.
"The CBS Television Stations applications are a logical extension of our CBS News app; they give us the chance to engage users at a grassroots level and expose them to the news that matters to them the most," said Rob Gelick, senior vp and general manager of CBS Mobile.
The Twitter feature provides insights and breaking news from anchors and reporters in local markets. Users can also navigate by topic through the unique "News Trends" section, a collection of the top stories from feeds across Twitter.
