TBS NEWS DIG Powered by JNN (hereinafter, TBS NEWS DIG), the news media operated by JNN's 28 stations with TBS Television as the key station, has achieved over 300 million PV per month for four consecutive months since first surpassing this mark in March 2026, four years after its launch in April 2022. In June, it garnered even greater support from users, setting a new record of 376 million PV (*).
As we enter a period requiring vigilance against typhoons and heavy rains, the TBS NEWS DIG app, which delivers reliable news backed by JNN's reporting capabilities and essential disaster prevention information to "protect lives" and support your daily lives, has further enhanced its information dissemination and become even more user-friendly.
(*) PV figures are based on Google Analytics / newsdig domain total, excluding external PV.
In June, demand for disaster prevention information was high due to heavy rains from the "double typhoon" of Typhoon No. 7 and No. 8, as well as earthquakes such as a magnitude 6+ tremor in Aomori and a magnitude 6- tremor in Yamanashi, and a "tsunami advisory" issued following an earthquake near the Philippines. Amidst a flood of diverse information, many users seeking to "accurately know what is happening right now" visited TBS NEWS DIG and viewed numerous articles. Furthermore, for the court case articles concerning incidents in Asahikawa and Ebetsu cities in Hokkaido, we delved deeper into the background of the cases, leveraging the characteristics of digital news to provide details that could not be fully conveyed by television alone. Additionally, an article depicting the future of dental care pioneered by local companies, capitalizing on TBS NEWS DIG's strength in reporting on topics from across Japan, received significant support from users.
With a focus on TBS NEWS DIG's accurate and rapid information dissemination and in-depth reporting on news and topics from across the country, we will continue to be a media outlet that supports societal reflection through information that resonates with people.
In the TBS NEWS DIG app, where you can receive the latest news and useful disaster prevention information for free, we will strengthen our disaster prevention information dissemination, primarily through live streaming, to meet users' needs for accurate information on "what is happening now" and "what to be aware of" during periods of typhoon and heavy rain warnings, or major earthquakes.
Furthermore, with high-functionality services unique to the app, such as "Pinpoint Rain Cloud Notifications" that clearly convey sudden weather changes, "16-Day Weather Forecast" for quickly checking forecasts more than two weeks ahead, and disaster alerts that promptly inform users of heavy rains or major earthquakes, we will steadfastly support your lives as a phase-free news and disaster prevention app, whether in normal times or emergencies.
We encourage you to install the TBS NEWS DIG app, which offers comprehensive "Weather Information" and life-saving "Disaster Prevention Information," at this opportunity.
TBS NEWS DIG will continue to deliver reliable "investigative reporting," life-saving "weather and disaster prevention information," and comprehensive "local & global information" from across Japan and the world in a way that is close to you.
