“With TEN’s social audience exceeding 128 million and YouTube video viewership surpassing 1 billion views, developing exclusive live video programming on Facebook Live is a natural fit,” said Greg Morrow, TEN’s senior VP of digital, sports and entertainment. “TEN is committed to providing its highly engaged audience with even more video programming and a category-leading social experience. We’ve been testing the platform for months and are ready to scale in a big way.”
