RightNetwork's Syndication Partners Include Verizon
By karoli

Just in time for the midterms, the RightNetwork launched today with no fanfare and less traction. At least, for now.

If you're not familiar with the RightNetwork, go back to my posts last April when Comcast was listed in their sales literature as a partner before they denied it and the site was scrubbed of any reference to them.

David Badash sums them up pretty well:

The Right Network is a media attempt to give credibility to right-wing hate and fear-mongering, conservative bigotry, and Republican talking points.

<...>

With philandering poster boy Kelsey Grammer as its mascot and money source, the Right Network, whose tagline is “All that’s right with the world,” is exactly what’s wrong with the world, and especially, wrong with America.

That more or less says it all, along with their current syndication partners. It's clear RightNetwork is looking for a toehold in the mobile video and Internet TV markets. Their largest syndicator is Verizon FIOS TV, and they promise a presence on Roku and Sezmi in the future.
