Social deserves its own programming

“Social deserves its own programming,” McCormack said. “This is a new programming platform. It’s not just about ‘Watch Jersey Shore at 10 o’clock.’ It’s about how do we generate content and stories to engage people on these platforms.”

Not only do those pieces of content have to be relevant to its shows and its brand, but they also have to be tailored to the platform that they appear on.
