Just the News parent launches its own TV network in time for Election Day coverage

Just the Network, the parent company of Just the News, announced Monday it was releasing its new streaming television app early so that users can experience the network’s midterm election coverage on Tuesday.

The Just the Network app is already available on iOS, Android, Fire TV, Apple TV, Samsung, LG and Roku platforms and will expand both distribution and content over the next few months ahead of its formal first-quarter launch, CEO Mark Meckler said.

When users download the app from their preferred platform, they will see familiar faces and exciting new programs, including a new show called American Gravy from Chef Andrew Gruel, a staple of the Food Network, a 24-hour, seven-day financial news feed from FinTech TV, a daily news show for Hispanics called Voz, and unique programming from Dr. Laura Schlessinger, Reagan movie producer Mark Joseph, talk show host Eric Metaxas, The Post Millennial editor Libby Emmons and political commentator J.D. Rucker.

The streaming app features about 40 hours of programming daily with plans to expand over the next several months to include movies, comedy, sports, news and talk shows.

Meckler said the app was finished early, loaded with a wide variety of content and launched Monday to give audiences a chance to test drive the streaming TV experience with Election Day coverage from Just the News founder John Solomon and his Real America’s Voice colleagues beginning at 4 p.m. ET on Tuesday.

A staple of the network will be the nightly news show Just the News, No Noise, featuring exclusive newsmaker interviews and investigative stories from Solomon and his co-host Amanda Head.

That show will continue to broadcast on Real America’s Voice while offering a second home at the Just the Network app surrounded by content that expands beyond news.

“It’s a dream to be on a network that includes Chef Andrew, Dr. Laura, Mark Joseph and so many other extraordinary talents,” Solomon said. “Comedy should be about laughter. News should be about facts. Sports should be about what’s happening on the field or the court. Life should be about cooking and motherhood and family. And that’s what we are all about here at Just the Network. Wholesome American values captured inside entertaining shows.”

One of the talents debuting on Just the Network on Tuesday will be social media sensation Lori Conway, whose Crazy Busy Momma series on You Tube has captured the hearts of millions all across America with a show that shared recipes, child rearing ideas and the heartbreak of unexpectedly losing her husband Quintin in 2024. Her new show for Just the Network is called Failing Forward.

“My heart has always been about bringing families back around the table, finding joy in the everyday moments, and reminding other busy mamas that they don’t have to have everything figured out,” Conway said in announcing her partnership with Just the Network.

Meckler said viewers should stay tuned for other major announcements about content creators and app features that are planned soon.

Last week, Just the Network announced it was partnering on a project with Roseanne Barr to return her to television as a grandma in a new comedy called Meemaw. The series is currently being pitched to major streaming services for its first run.
