TheStreet.com to Provide Financial Content for AOL
Posted on April 20, 1998
AOL Interactive Services, the Internet online services division of America Online, Inc., and TheStreet.com, a subscription-based investment news site, announced an agreement to feature TheStreet.com's financial analysis and live events through an anchor tenancy in AOL's Personal Finance Channel.
Under the agreement, TheStreet.com will provide AOL's Personal Finance Channel with certain financial news and commentary otherwise accessible only through TheStreet.com's premium Website. AOL members who wish to access the full range of TheStreet.com's features and analysis will receive a 20% discount on subscriptions to TheStreet.com's Website, normally $99.95 per year.
Certain features from TheStreet.com's premium Website will be available in AOL's Active Trader and Investing Forums areas when they launch in several weeks, and also through Keyword: TheStreet.
TheStreet.com's free offerings on AOL will include: Jim Cramer's Wrong! columns, market update stories throughout the day by Senior Financial Columnist Herb Greenberg and Editor-in-Chief Dave Kansas, as well as daily reporting on mutual funds and options. These features will appear in AOL's Personal Finance Channel shortly after they have already appeared on TheStreet.com's site. Regular live chat events on AOL are also a key component of the relationship.
