One America News Network

What One America News Network does

One America News Network (OANN) is a privately held, family-owned and operated conservative-leaning national cable news network headquartered at 4757 Morena Blvd, San Diego, California. The network is owned and operated by Herring Networks, Inc., a holding entity founded in 2004 with 51-100 employees. Robert Herring serves as founder & CEO and Richard Levine serves as President. OANN distributes its programming nationally via major cable and satellite providers including DirecTV, Comcast/Xfinity, Charter/Spectrum, AT&T, and Dish, as well as approximately 100 regional cable operators.

The network's core technology combines linear cable television broadcast with digital streaming infrastructure, operating the OAN Live subscription streaming service (with a free 7-day trial), the OAN Plus FAST (Free Ad-Supported Streaming TV) channel on Amazon Prime Video (launched January 2026), and presence on YouTube TV, Apple TV, Roku, and Amazon FireTV. Original programming includes multiple branded shows such as Real America with Dan Ball, The Matt Gaetz Show, The Real Story with Riley Lewis, The Best Darn Sports Show! with John Salley, Fine Point with Chanel Rion, Weekly Briefing, and The Anchormen Show. The company says it reaches 100M+ viewers worldwide.

OANN generates revenue through two primary streams: (1) advertising placements across linear broadcasts and FAST streaming platforms (the dominant revenue model), and (2) subscription revenue from OAN Live. Pricing for OAN Live is not publicly disclosed. The customer base is primarily U.S. conservative-leaning news consumers seeking national news, political commentary, and sports content, with a secondary broader general-news audience. OANN has recently expanded into sports programming (October 2025), prime-time political analysis (David Pollack Primetime, April 2026), and incremental FAST streaming distribution, all positioned around the 2026 midterm election advertising cycle.

Broad incumbents
