Spectrum News to Reach Xfinity TV Customers in Connecticut, Northern New Jersey, Orlando and Tampa
STAMFORD, Conn., Oct. 8, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Spectrum News today announced an agreement with Comcast to expand distribution of Spectrum News to Xfinity TV customers in Connecticut, Northern New Jersey, Orlando and Tampa. Previously launched in California in response to the Los Angeles wildfires, Spectrum News will remain available to Xfinity TV customers throughout the state, with local news for viewers in Sacramento and San Francisco.
“We are always looking for ways to bring our community-driven reporting to even more people, and this is an exciting opportunity to reach new viewers in some of the country’s largest markets,” said Mike Bair, Executive Vice President of Spectrum Networks. “Unbiased local journalism is a key pillar of our society and, while local news coverage across the country is shrinking, Spectrum News is expanding to provide more access when people need it most.”
Spectrum News features 24/7 coverage of the day’s top local and nationally relevant stories, breaking news reports, community, state and national political coverage, as well as local weather. In the coming weeks:
- Spectrum News NY1 will be made available to Xfinity TV customers in northern New Jersey and Connecticut
- Spectrum News 13 will launch to Xfinity TV customers in Orlando
- Spectrum Bay News 9 will be seen by Xfinity TV customers in Tampa
Spectrum News has continued to expand its reach in recent years, launching several local linear TV news networks, a streaming news network, Spectrum News+; a Spanish-language news network, Spectrum Noticias; introducing a mobile news app currently with over 5.5 million downloads; and creating its local connected TV news app on Xumo Stream Box, Roku and Apple TV, underscoring its commitment to making Spectrum News available and accessible across multiple platforms.
