They are also expanding their programming through the development of a new brand entitled The Cruise Journalist. Filmed on location around the world and aboard some of the industry's most exciting cruise ships, this new brand's focused and enticing video content will afford viewers a behind-the-scenes look at the unique ups and downs of the cruise journalist's lifestyle.
