The Fox News Deck Features Giant Touch Screens

Posted on October 7, 2013

Shepard Smith lead viewers on a tour of the new Fox News Deck. The main feature of the Fox News Deck is supersized touch screens. Fox calls them BATS, which stands for Big Area Touch Screens.

Fox rebuilt the News Deck from the ground up. Fox News information specialists will sort through all the incoming tweets and photographs to track developing stories. Fox News says it can pull up any of the information on the 55-inch BATS on its main news screen or 38-foot-long viewing wall at the touch of a button. Fox News sees other organizations copying this concept in the future. Take a look:
