CNN All Access comes to Prime Video Channels

CNN’s All Access streaming subscription is now available through Prime Video in the United States, expanding the distribution of the network’s direct-to-consumer offering.

The subscription gives Amazon customers access to CNN’s global live news channels, including U.S. and international programming, as well as CNN Originals, CNN Original Series, CNN Films, live events, breaking news coverage and exclusive video-on-demand programming.

All Access is being sold as an add-on only.

CNN All Access is available on Prime Video for $6.99 per month or an introductory annual price of $41.99, the same price that CNN charges when buying directly from its website or apps.

“We launched CNN’s All Access subscription to make our journalism and original programming available wherever and however audiences prefer to engage,” Alex MacCallum, chief operating officer of CNN Worldwide, said in a statement. “Expanding to Prime Video is a natural extension of that strategy as we remain committed to providing CNN’s world-class content to as many viewers as possible.”

Ryan Pirozzi, head of Prime Video Channels in the U.S., said the launch adds another subscription option to Prime Video’s lineup.

“We’re excited to bring CNN’s All Access subscription to Prime Video, adding yet another option to the wide selection of subscriptions available to our customers all in one place,” Pirozzi said. “This launch is another milestone in the continued growth of our subscription business, making it even easier for customers to find and enjoy the content they want, from news to entertainment and everything in between, right on Prime Video.”

Subscribers will also have access to CNN’s July Fourth programming tied to the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, including “Independence Eve Live with Anderson Cooper and Andy Cohen” on July 3 and “The Fourth in America” on July 4.
