LexisNexis Implements Critical Mention’s Broadcast Media Monitoring API

Critical Mention Broadcast Package Includes Coverage Across The US, Canada, And The UK From More Than 2,200 Sources

LexisNexis has chosen Critical Mention, a full-service media monitoring company, to bolster the real-time television and radio broadcast coverage in its media intelligence solution. Critical Mention now delivers its broadcast feed — more than 40 broadcast hours indexed every minute — to LexisNexis Newsdesk, a media intelligence solution recently named the Best News Media Monitoring Solution by SIIA.

Alex Schwendtner, General Manager of Media Intelligence, LexisNexis said, “As a leading provider of global media content, we pride ourselves on offering the broadest array of content options possible. The addition of Critical Mention’s broadcast content into LexisNexis Newsdesk as an option for our customers is a valuable accompaniment to the strong set of global broadcast content available in the tool.”

The Critical Mention broadcast package includes coverage across the US, Canada, and the UK from more than 2,200 sources. The addition of Critical Mention’s coverage helps strengthen the existing global broadcast content available within LexisNexis Newsdesk.

Don Yount, CEO, Critical Mention, said, “It’s a pleasure working with LexisNexis. We appreciate their endorsement of the speed, reliability and depth of our coverage. We work hard to maintain our position as the leading real-time aggregator of live television and radio content. Aligning with a knowledgeable, respected and forward-thinking information firm like LexisNexis is rewarding validation of the investment we’ve made in building a technologically superior broadcast capture network.”
