And the right-wing news outlet Newsmax is already at work on “Newsmax 2,” says Christopher Ruddy, the company’s CEO, in an interivew. He describes a free streaming counterpart to its opinion-heavy cable network that will rely more on “straight news” reporting and weather and that could be ready by late 2022 or in 2023. “The real growth, I think, that’s taking place are these FAST channels and free channels that are proliferating on Amazon Fire and Pluto and Xumo and Roku,” the executive says.
