“Cheddar is Everywhere” has always been a core focus for our network. Today, we announce Cheddar 2.0 to adapt to what has been a continually evolving streaming ecosystem in the roughly four years since our first broadcast from an iPhone on Facebook Live.

Cheddar began as a business news network in 2016, and we followed two years later with a second headline news network. Today we are unifying these two networks into one Cheddar with a new tagline: “News Worth Investing In.” The network will stay true to its business focus on technology, media, and innovation and also…

In January 2016, I incorporated Cheddar. Peter Gorenstein (our Chief Content Officer) and I sat in the lobby of The Westin in Times Square (our “office”) and dreamt of creating Cheddar and getting it on Sling.

Sling was the first to bet on us. We love them and our partnership.

In the intervening 3 years, the following services have launched, and Cheddar has subsequently been privileged to receive carriage on:

• YouTube TV
• Hulu with Live TV
• DIRECTV NOW
• fuboTV
• Philo
• Sony PlayStation Vue
