The network launched with the intention of targetting a ]-leaning audience with OAN President Charles Herring telling CPAC that, “] has done a great job serving the center-right and independent audiences...But those who consider themselves liberal have a half dozen or more choices on TV each day from which to get their news.”<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2013/03/14/one-america-news-network-new-conservative-cable-channel-sets-launch.html|title=One America News Network, New Conservative Cable Channel, Sets Launch|date=March 14, 2013|work=]}}</ref> Herring also stressed the network's separation of news and opinion content, with straight news reporting throughout the day and limited opinion commentary from evening talk shows, including ''The Daily Ledger'' hosted by Graham Ledger.

One America News Network, commonly referred to as One America News (abbreviated as OAN), is an American cable news television channel that is owned by Herring Networks, Inc.. The network is headquartered in San Diego, California, and operates a news bureau in Washington, D.C. and New York City.

OAN states a goal of delivering objective news coverage while its political talk shows illustrate a strong conservative view.

The channel was launched on July 4, 2013. One America has national carriage on DirecTV, Verizon FiOS and AT&T U-verse, along with a number of regional cable providers, including Frontier Communications, CenturyLink PRISM TV, Consolidated Communications, Buckeye Broadband, and GCI.

Herring Networks, Inc., an independent and family-owned national video programming company owns and operates OAN and sister channel AWE (formerly WealthTV; the initialism being an acronym for "A Wealth of Entertainment"). When the network began in 2013 it had a limited partnership with The Washington Times.

In July 2014, OAN relocated its news and production studios out of The Washington Times Building to its new location at 101 Constitution Avenue NW, near the United States Capitol. The move ended OAN's relationship with The Washington Times, which provided news and analysis, as well as a lease space arrangement, for the network. While its Washington Bureau was previously located within the Times building, OAN remains solely owned and operated, including all editorial control, by Herring Networks, Inc.

Charles Herring, in an interview in CPAC, said "Fox is a great platform, a lot of conservatives like it, it gets outstanding ratings. There is nothing wrong with Fox. The problem is that if you take the channel lineup, the sources of national news tend to lean to the left … and all we have is Fox."
