Emerson Collective is a digital television channel based in the United States. It produces content surrounding the events of political life in Washington, D.C. The digital media is available for streaming or download online for a small fee. Users can access this content using their smartphones, laptops, or tablets. The channel was started in 2009 by Howard Sheen. He was a former lobbyist and wanted to expose the inner workings of the political system in the United States. He decided to team up with producers from Hollywood in order to hire writers, actors, and directors to fill in the stories which he wanted to tell. Soon after launching the channel, he received positive reviews and began expanding the nature of the content. Now, the shows include documentaries, interview news segments, and live streaming of important events.
Examples of current titles are Washington Now and Business Live. Washington Now is a show that focuses on delivering detailed and timely information to the viewer about politics. It features two hosts who deliver breaking news as well as reporters in the field who interview national figures about policies. Business Live features professional analysts, stock brokers, news anchors, and economists in order to discuss the stock market and international exchange. Hong Kong is a common topic on the show, as many banks are located in that city. Reporters offer interviews and live data from various locations around the world. The show debuted in 2009 and is set to continue airing through at least 2017.
