TrueReal is an American free-to-air television network owned by the Katz Broadcasting subsidiary of the E. W. Scripps Company. TrueReal is targeted at women aged 25–54.
TrueReal and Defy TV, a complementary network targeted at men aged 25–54, launched together on July 1, 2021, with broadcast coverage of 92% of the United States.
History
On March 2, 2021, Scripps announced that it would launch two new multicast networks—Defy and TrueReal (working title: Doozy)—in the wake of its acquisition of Ion Media and television transmitters across the United States.[1] The channels are part of Scripps's strategy to increase penetration among cord cutters that do not have traditional pay-TV packages.[2]
The services launched on July 1 with 92% national coverage, mostly on Ion transmitters but also on subchannels of some Scripps local TV stations and by agreement with other station groups.[3]
Programming
Launch programs for TrueReal are reality programs from the library of A&E Networks, including Storage Wars, Little Women: LA, Intervention and Wahlburgers.[4]
