“Big news! ITV unable to sell video advertising on own site!”

It’s ITN, not ITV.

(ITN is the company that makes news programmes for ITV — as well as Channel 4, mobile phone networks, radio stations, etc.)

ITN videos are already getting a lot more views on YouTube than they ever could ever hope for on http://www.itn.co.uk.

Are you IP checking all of your posters, or do you ask them first?

So long.

Nah. I’ve been watching the Port channel on Sky for ages. It’s got a great following.

“There will be port, film and interestingly: Bollywood programmes”

I know there is (or least was) a channel on Sky dedicated to wine, but isn’t dedicated “port” programming a bit overly niche for a company like ITN? While they are obviously going after niche markets with things like Bollywood programmes, having programmes dedicated to a particular type of fortified wine is probably taking things a bit to far.

Big news! ITV unable to sell video advertising on own site! Relents to hand over said monetisation to Google!

This was all over the press yesterday, not today…
