Network News Service (NNS) to Deploy Generation Technologies News Information Management System

OVERLAND PARK, Kan., April 9, 2008 /PRNewswire/ -- Network News Service (NNS) has selected Generation Technologies Corporation (GTC) to provide its next generation network newsroom and affiliate editorial content management system. The system known as NIM(TM) will be replacing an earlier version of the same system installed at NNS's inception in 2000.

NNS is the domestic news cooperative of ABC, CBS and FOX News.

The system improves network operations efficiency and communications, while maintaining the current NNS news workflow. New editorial material will be ingested via the GTC wires system and will be viewed via NIM(TM) in real-time. NNS can sort and search material and set up views specific to each user's job function. Users will be able to create, edit and approve news content and distribute to the partner networks for use. Information and functions critical to daily job duties will be consolidated to a single location.

GTC is a privately held company that has specialized in TV news for 30 years. Their products include software and hardware for all aspects of managing a network television newsroom from the assignment desk to the contribution and distribution of video clips and news wires.
