The Future of Field Reporting is Mobile

In today’s 24/7 news cycle, journalists need tools that move as fast as the story. Smartphones have become essential to modern journalism — gathering information, capturing video, and sharing updates instantly — as audiences increasingly demand faster, higher-quality news delivered through video. That’s why CNN’s field teams and journalists can now rely on SuperMobile, built on T-Mobile’s 5G Advanced network, to connect seamlessly in the most challenging environments in the U.S.

Audiences will soon see SuperMobile in action as CNN journalists go live from the field during breaking news moments — including some of the most critical news days of the year. Using T-Mobile devices on SuperMobile, journalists can stream straight from the scene with the speed, reach, and reliability essential for real-time coverage. Their reporting will run across CNN’s digital ecosystem — on the website, in the mobile app and within CNN’s new streaming subscription service, which just launched on October 28. With SuperMobile, journalists can go live from their phones almost instantly, bringing audiences closer to the story as it unfolds.
