Very Local, the free streaming service from Hearst Television featuring local news, weather and originals, has been added to the content offerings on Plex, the global streaming media platform for popular free movies, TV, and entertainment.

The Plex addition is the latest in a number of distribution agreements secured by Very Local, which is available to stream on Roku, Amazon Fire TV, Apple TV and Samsung Smart TVs.

“We are excited to expand our distribution for Very Local’s programming with Plex. As consumers are searching out quality local content on streaming, we want to meet them where they are,” said Andrew Fitzgerald, senior vice president, streaming video services, at Hearst Television.

“The addition of Very Local to Plex adds a fantastic array of new content to our ever-growing free library of content, further providing consumers with a one-stop destination to discover and stream content without the hassle of toggling between apps to find something to watch,” added Shawn Eldridge, Vice President, Strategic Alliances and Content, Plex.
