BBC News tests video distribution using chat app Line
['Margaret Looney']
International Journalists' Network
Enter BBC News' latest experiment, launching a presence for international news on a chat app with Line, a free instant messaging service for video, text and calls.
This isn't the first time BBC News has experimented with short-form video distribution.
Earlier this year, BBC launched Instafax, which features 15-second videos recapping the major headlines of the day.
BBC's line experiment will be tapping into this same content but sharing it in chat form.
