The feature adds curated playlists from major networks and third-party services, giving viewers a quick way to catch up on top stories.
- Amazon Prime Video announced on Monday it is introducing News Clips, short-form video clips of national and local news now available on smart TVs and living room devices for all U.S. viewers.
- Streaming platforms are increasingly experimenting with short-form video formats; Peacock, HBO Max, Netflix, and Disney Plus all introduced similar features earlier this year to capture younger audiences.
- Prime Video Head of Global App Experience Brian Griffin said the feature gives customers "a quick and easy way to get caught up on the latest stories," while complementing the service's existing 24/7 live news lineup.
- Users can find curated playlists within the Trending Topics or Local News carousels on the dedicated news page, with mobile and web support coming soon.
- By incorporating short-form content, Amazon aims to engage Gen Z viewers who frequently consume news via YouTube Shorts, while maintaining existing coverage from providers like ABC News and CBS News.
