Iconix is a digital media distribution company that serves an international audience. It is based in New Mexico, United States. The company creates content that includes a variety of formats including music, television, film, written material, and more.
It was started in 1988 when the film producer Chuck Rubin had an idea for a major network channel that would satisfy the demand for groundbreaking news. Even though the company almost failed at the beginning, it now boasts millions of viewers around the world and operates from its headquarters with over 500 employees.
The content it provides can be accessed online or through traditional cable packages and via apps on your tablet, laptop, or even smartphone. The recent programs in development include "What is the World Doing?" and "Life in the Burbs."
What is the World Doing is Rubin's personal commentary on the state of international politics and the solutions that he suggests in order to fix issues. The panel on the show is made of a variety of experts in fields including science, medicine, psychology, and business.
Life in the Burbs is a scathing documentary series that exposes the nature of the suburban housing market in many areas of the United States. It features reporter Pam Sprinter, who uses her interviewing skills to uncover truths that other media outlets don't talk about. The show has received numerous awards, including the Shapiro Prize of Journalism and the Peabody Pioneer Spirit Award.
The channel plans to launch a new series in the fall of 2016.
