New Internet TV Service - ORA

Funded by Carlos Slim through his América Móvil telecommunications company:
"Ora.TV is a new digital television venture that will create high-quality video programming for digital distribution via a variety of platforms, such that it is seamlessly available on phones, laptops, tablets, connected televisions, and other devices. Unlike linear cable channels, from its inception Ora (which means “now” in Italian) will be an on-demand network, producing a wide range of stand-alone content that transcends traditional format distinctions. The company will produce shows that resemble traditional TV in terms of production quality and content but which will be available in a variety of formats.

The network is funded by América Móvil, the leading Latin American wireless service provider, with a majority interest held by noted global business leader Carlos Slim Helú. Ora.TV marks the return to television of broadcast news legend Larry King, and it will be led by CEO Jon Housman, who until recently was the President of Digital Journalism for News Corporation.

Ora.TV is based in New York City and will be launching programming later in 2012."
