BT And Carlton Reported To Be In Alliance Talks

Carlton Communications and BT have held discussions about a possible media alliance, according to a report in the Financial Times newspaper. It says that BT would benefit from Carlton’s content as one of the two main ITV companies and Carlton in turn would be able to gain access to BT’s broadband networks.

An alliance could see the two groups offering television and high-speed internet services through BT’s network. ITV’s digital terrestrial service, ONdigital, could use the broadband system to delivery internet serviecs to its customers.
