> On most streaming devices, OANN offers a stand-alone app that allows users to subscribe to its online news channel for $5 per month. This app is available on Roku along with Apple TV, Amazon Fire TV devices, and Android TV devices, and users would most likely have to search for it by name. By comparison, The Roku Channel puts OAN’s content in front of millions of users, whether they’re looking for it or not.
>The Roku Channel isn’t some minor feature, either. The company has touted the app as a centerpiece of its advertising b, which brought in $740 million last year.
I assume OAN is paying for placement. I cant seem to find how much from quick searching, but this seems to be just companies chasing revenue.
