UNITED/CARLTON MERGER IS OFF! Posted Fri Jul 21 18:26:47 BST 2000 by Anonymous

United News and Media have announced that they will not merge with Carlton because it would mean having to sell Meridian to another company.

Good or Bad?

GOOD, pay attention look above to a thread called 'Carlton - United: ITS OFF', please pay attention when starting new threads, I had to do this last week about the announcement. People pay attention.

I think it's bad as Granada will now end up the biggest player in the itv network.
It would have been nice if there was going to be some competition between Granada and a merged Carlton/United company. Oh well [itv] can go down the plughole now for all i care..
