Verizon and CBS Corporation on Monday announced a deal that will bring full-length CBS programming to Verizon V CAST subscribers. Verizon now has the mobile rights to broadcast shows like 60 Minutes to customers who subscribe to its V CAST mobile video service.
The deal also includes the national, video on-demand rights – in standard and high-definition – for shows like CSI, NCIS, Survivor, and Numb3rs. Verizon will also continue to offer CBS programming via its FiOS TV video service.
“Verizon subscribers will have continued access to [CBS] not only through FiOS TV, but also through V CAST on the mobile phone, which enhances our profile on a key emerging platform,” Leslie Moonves, president and CEO of BS Corporation, said in a statement.
