GRAPEVINE, Texas, Feb. 28, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Bill Abbott, President & CEO of Great American Media, joined industry leaders at the NRB 2025 International Christian Media Convention in Grapevine, Texas, as a featured panelist in the Vision for the Future of Values-Driven Media forum.

The discussion explored the rapid expansion of values-driven content, the increasing demand for faith- and family-focused storytelling, and how media leaders are shaping the industry’s future.

Moderated by Adele Malpass, President of the Daily Caller News Foundation, the panel featured insights from Raymond Arroyo (Fox News), Cheryl Chumley (The Washington Times), and Yurisan Cordero (TelevisaUnivision). Together, they examined the evolving media landscape and the growing audience demand for uplifting, values-based entertainment.

Faith, Family, and the Future of Media

“The demand for storytelling that uplifts, inspires, and reflects the principles audiences cherish has never been stronger,” said Abbott. “At Great American Media, we’ve built a thriving network by remaining steadfast in our commitment to faith, family, and country—offering content that resonates deeply with viewers seeking alternatives to mainstream entertainment.”

Abbott highlighted the unprecedented success of Christmas programming, a genre he reinvigorated for TV—first at Fox, then at Hallmark, and now at Great American Media—as an example of uplifting entertainment that attracts audiences. He noted that while many networks face declining viewership, Great American Family, the company’s linear cable network, has experienced significant audience growth by delivering meaningful, heartwarming stories year-round. In Q4 2024, Great American Family was the only network in its peer group to see household audience growth, according to Nielsen.

That momentum has continued into 2025, Abbott said, citing the success of County Rescue, which premiered its second season this week as part of Great American Family’s “Faith & Family Sundays” programming event. “Faith & Family Sundays” features 30 consecutive weeks of new episodes from the network’s original series, bringing faith and family together through compelling storytelling. Other series in the lineup include When Hope Calls and Vindication (Season 4).

“Our audience tunes in expecting to be uplifted and inspired,” Abbott said. “Other networks may shock and surprise, but we provide entertainment without compromise—delivering high-quality storytelling that aligns with our values.”

Faith-Based Media in the Digital Age

The panel also discussed the influence of digital media and Big Tech on faith-based entertainment, addressing issues such as censorship and content moderation as audiences shift from traditional cable to digital platforms.

Abbott emphasized that digital platforms are breaking down barriers, making values-driven content more accessible than ever. However, he urged technology providers to apply fair and consistent standards to faith-based content. “Free speech is free speech,” he said.

As part of its digital expansion, Great American Media has grown its streaming footprint through Great American Pure Flix, a premier faith and family streaming platform.

“The technology of storytelling has evolved, but the need for faith-affirming narratives remains constant,” Abbott concluded. “As long as audiences continue seeking these stories, we’ll be here to tell them.”

ABOUT GREAT AMERICAN MEDIA

Great American Media is home to a family-friendly portfolio of brands, including Great American Family, Great American Pure Flix, and Great American Faith & Living.

Great American Family is the flagship linear TV network, featuring original Christmas movies, rom-coms, and classic series that celebrate faith, family, and country.Great American Pure Flix is a leading faith and family streaming service that inspires, uplifts, and entertains with content you can confidently stream with the entire family.Great American Faith & Living is an unscripted companion network to Great American Family, celebrating faith, family, and country every day and every season.Great American Adventures and Pure Flix TV are FAST channels (free ad-supported streaming TV) that further expand the company’s reach.

Pivot Bio’s latest technology is now accessible to growers and partners across the U.S. Cotton Belt.

WAYZATA, Minn., Feb. 28, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Pivot Bio, one of the world’s most innovative agtech companies, announced today that it has commercially launched a new product for cotton crops in the United States. The product will be available through Pivot Bio’s distribution partners for a select group of growers this season, with a full commercial launch for the 2026 planting season.

CERT-N™ will join other Pivot Bio products including PROVEN® and RETURN®, and a soon-to-be-launched next generation product in corn for the 2026 season. Pivot Bio’s patent-protected technology provides a steady source of nitrogen to cotton plants from emergence to harvest, providing weatherproof nitrogen and helping the crop reach its full yield and fiber quality potential.

Pivot Bio produces the only gene-edited, nitrogen-fixing products on the market. This means Pivot Bio products are the only biological products that deliver nitrogen directly to the roots, even in the presence of synthetic fertilizers and manure. CERT-N™ is the only gene-edited nitrogen fixer available in cotton. Applied as a seed treatment, it spoon-feeds nitrogen to the roots, setting crops up for early square retention, higher boll counts and healthier plants at defoliation time. In Pivot Bio’s 2024 large-scale farm trials across eight states, fields treated with CERT-N™ replaced an average of 20% of their normal nitrogen program and saw an average yield gain of 50 pounds of lint per acre and a $35 boost in ROI.

“We are certainly excited to announce this latest innovation in crop fertility,” said Chris Abbott, CEO, Pivot Bio. “Growers have been asking us to provide a product for cotton, and we are proud to make CERT-N™ available to complement their nutrition program. The results we have seen in independent research and directly with growers have been strong, and we are confident that cotton growers will see a strong benefit and value by adding this product to their fertility plan. Additionally, we have a team of agronomists who stand ready to work with growers and distribution partners to ensure they have a best-in-class experience and results.  Our innovation pipeline remains full, and we look forward to announcing our next generation product for the 2026 marketplace soon.”

“A huge thank you to the farms that have placed their trust in Pivot Bio and partnered with us on this exciting product offering in cotton,” said Jeff Hollowell, Pivot Bio agronomist and cotton expert. “It’s been a true team effort to bring CERT-N™ to a limited number of growers across the cotton belt for the 2025 crop season. Being able to evaluate CERT-N™ hands-on last season at a farm scale—using farm production equipment—was an incredible experience. Seeing the tangible benefits, it brought to the crop, which resulted in a positive ROI for the partner farms that tested CERT-N™, was truly rewarding!”

CERT-N™ is now available for sale to growers and partners in select Cotton Belt states. In 2025, Pivot Bio will conduct demo fields across the region to showcase the benefits of this new technology as part of a limited commercial launch. A full commercial launch is slated for 2026.
