bbc對abc的新聞合約感興趣

　據(jù)說英國廣播公司（BBC）對與美國廣播公司（ABC）共同組建一個新聞收集聯(lián)盟頗感興趣。此前，ABC與美國有線新聞網(wǎng)（CNN）的合并會談已在2002年12月間降溫。
BBC正在擔(dān)心已提議的CNN的交易替代與ABC的協(xié)議，這是BBC海外通訊記者在晚間新聞中播報的消息。
直到確信ABC與有線新聞網(wǎng)的交易沉船,BBC才期待著與ABC進(jìn)行接觸，美國廣播公司與有線新聞網(wǎng)的會談是在涉及其運作和構(gòu)架問題時破產(chǎn)的'，關(guān)于是否再繼續(xù)將于下幾周有望決定。
ABC的新聞發(fā)言人Jeffrey Schneider說:“我們樂衷于這樣有些令人恐怖的關(guān)系就如同我們與其它的國外新聞方面的合作伙伴�！彼�還說：“我們一直尋求恰當(dāng)?shù)姆椒▉頂U(kuò)大我們的覆蓋面，并盡力尋找有效的方案，但并沒有達(dá)成任何商討建議�！�
據(jù)ABC新聞業(yè)內(nèi)人士透露，在周一的金融時報見報的有關(guān)于此交易的報導(dǎo)，其實是BBC的主管人員對未來的前景添油加醋的說法。在會晤中，主管人員暗示早在去年BBC就有意試探與ABC新聞網(wǎng)融資，而當(dāng)時ABC正與CNN進(jìn)行磋商，但ABC的內(nèi)部人士表示BBC的興趣似乎過分濃厚了�！�
據(jù)周一的金融時報說，BBC的建議似乎與CNN的交易同出一轍，僅僅只是缺乏全面的融資。基于目前的建議，CNN將為ABC提供覆蓋全球的新聞及壟斷性的新聞，而海外事務(wù)也將合并。作為回報，CNN將會獲得在ABC的一次竟標(biāo)中在國內(nèi)企業(yè)中的宣傳。

BBC希望在美國達(dá)到一個較好的現(xiàn)狀，除了與ABC簽定的合同之外，英國廣播公司新聞網(wǎng)公告顯示，在接受采訪BBC的三千萬美國家庭中，有90%的美國家庭對美國公共廣播公司的安排表示有好感。

BBC Keen on ABC News Pact -- Report
Tue Jan 7, 2:04 AM
LONDON (Variety) - The British Broadcasting Corp. is reportedly interested in forming a news-gathering alliance with ABC, whose merger talks with CNN cooled off in December.
The state-owned BBC is concerned that the proposed CNN deal would displace its arrangement with ABC, which airs reports from the Beeb's foreign correspondents on its evening news. The BBC is not expected to approach ABC until it is sure that the CNN deal is dead in the water. The ABC/CNN talks foundered on operational and structural issues, and a decision on whether to resume them is expected in the next few weeks.
"We're enjoying a terrific relationship with the BBC as we are with our other foreign news partners," said ABC News spokesman Jeffrey Schneider, who dismissed the story. "While we're always looking for ways to augment our coverage and looking for efficiencies, there are no discussions."
The report of the deal, which appeared in the Monday's Financial Times, was fueled by an upcoming profile on a BBC executive, according to an ABC News insider. During an interview, the executive hinted that the BBC would be interested in exploring a merger with ABC News along the lines of its discussions last year with CNN. But the ABC insider said that the BBC's interest was exaggerated.

The BBC declined to verify the account.
The BBC's proposal is likely to be similar to CNN's deal, only it will fall short of a full-blown merger, according to Monday's Financial Times. Under the current proposal, CNN would supply international coverage and breaking news to ABC. Overseas offices would be combined. In return, CNN would get exposure on ABC in a bid to raise its profile domestically.
The BBC is keen to achieve a greater presence in the United States. Aside from its contract with ABC, BBC World news bulletins are seen in 90% of U.S. homes thanks to a deal with PBS, while BBC America is available in 30 million households.
