Daily Mail says from the shocking to the intriguing, The Crime Desk is the hub for its collection of original content – bringing together audio, video and digital storytelling on one platform.
By uniting its podcasts with YouTube, TikTok, our written content and a brand-new newsletter, The Crime Desk creates a dedicated home of investigative journalism for audiences and advertisers alike, the publisher continued.
Ted Verity, Daily Mail editor-in-chief, said: “The Crime Desk is where journalism meets justice. A bold new network combining the rigour of investigative reporting with the intimacy of the voices behind the cases that captivate the world.
“From high-profile trials to long-forgotten cold cases, The Crime Desk brings together world-class journalism with expert analysis and commentary to deliver immersive audio and video experiences to Daily Mail readers, viewers and listeners from the front lines of crime reporting.”
Katie Davies, Daily Mail US editor-in-chief, said: “The Crime Desk brings together everything that makes Daily Mail journalism stand out: fearless reporting, gripping storytelling, and an unflinching look at the cases that capture the world’s attention.
“From podcasts to investigations, this new hub gives our audiences a single home for the true crime stories they can’t stop reading, watching, or listening to.”
With over two million global monthly podcast downloads across flagship series The Trial, The Trial USA and The Trial Australia Edition, 1.3 million TikTok fans, and nearly 200,000 YouTube subscribers, the Daily Mail says it has a true crime following around the world.
Armchair detectives can also get The Crime Desk newsletter delivered straight into their inbox. Launching on Wednesday, the publisher says readers can expect exclusive interviews, insight, and deep dive investigations.
The Crime Desk launches Monday October 27 across all platforms with the newsletter debuting Wednesday October 29.
