Abstract
Systems and methods for displaying primary content without any overlaid secondary content, and instead transmitting the secondary content to the viewer as a message through another communication channel. For example, a news banner is removed from display on a viewer's television, and the text of the news banner is encapsulated in a message sent to the viewer's primary social media account. In this manner, the viewer may watch the primary content uninterrupted by the secondary content, and is thus presented with fewer distractions and a potentially more enjoyable viewing experience.
