In the news: Renegadepress.com comes to Global

From Tim Arsenault of the Halifax Chronicle Herald:

  • Dealing with issues naturally: Series about youth delivers messages without amping up the drama
    “For families that might be in the market for something slightly less salacious, there’s been renegadepress.com. In addition to being a youth-friendly web portal, the name is also the title of a half-hour scripted show that’s been available to most viewers on APTN. That’s a little under-the-radar for some viewers, but renegadepress.com is premiering on Global tonight at 7 p.m. with the first of 52 episodes comprising four seasons’ worth of shows.” Read more.
