WarnerMedia will launch its CNN-branded streaming service early next year, and it could play a pivotal role in the company's overall strategy. Once the AT&T (NYSE: T) -owned media company merges with Discovery Communications (NASDAQ: DISCA) (NASDAQ: DISCK) , it will have three main streaming services: HBO Max, Discovery+, and CNN+. That puts it in a position to echo the success of Walt Disney 's (NYSE: DIS) successful streaming bundle.

CNN+ will have a price point of $5.99 per month and the company is aiming for a March 2022 launch, according to a report from Bloomberg . It will feature a mix of pre-recorded original series (some of which are currently available on HBO Max), interview shows, and live news content and commentary.
