Haystack TV, an ad-supported streaming service that connects viewers with local, national and global TV news, is expanding its worldwide distribution through a new technology integration agreement with Hisense, a global television and appliance manufacturer. Hisense, currently the third-largest television manufacturer, will pre-install and place the Haystack TV app prominently on the new VIDAA smart TV platform.
