Geo News becomes first Pakistani network to broadcast Live 360 video on Facebook

KARACHI: With the ever-evolving digital landscape, the way content is served and consumed is fast changing; besides being the most trusted and watched news network out of Pakistan, Geo News continues to add to the existing variety of options on how the audience can consume its content.

As Facebook users continued to grow in Pakistan; Geo News began experimenting by broadcasting news headlines and important events via Facebook Live in September last year, making the most trusted news source available to the audience in the palm of their hands.

Since then, on average, over 5 million followers log more than 40 million video views each month on Geo News’ official Facebook page GeoUrduDotTv.

From news reports to exclusive live coverage on Facebook from across the country, Geo News has raised the bar on how news is consumed in Pakistan.

Keeping with the tradition of being first in every aspect, Geo News broadcast Live 360 video on Facebook during our coverage of the protest sit-in in Karachi last Friday, making it the first in Pakistan and among few across the globe to have done so.

Viewed using your handheld device or on the desktop computer, a 360 video or immersive video as it is also known, allows the user to pan, tilt and look around as if they were actually there, getting them close to the action on-ground.

In the coming days, stay tuned for more Live 360 news from across the country on our official Facebook page, because we deliver news first, like no one else.
