ABC, CBS might work together
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — Executives at ABC and CBS News are talking about sharing equipment and other ways they could work together to cut costs while maintaining editorial independence.
Neither network would talk publicly about their negotiations, reported yesterday in The New York Times. But executives at both networks, speaking on condition of anonymity, confirmed the private meetings, which took place as recently as Wednesday.
Both networks had been involved in similar talks with CNN earlier this year. When those discussions proved fruitless, ABC and CBS turned to each other.
ABC and CBS already share a satellite uplink in Pakistan. Sharing more of the costly equipment used to transmit reports is central to the talks between the two networks, executives said.
Inere are also discussions about sharing camera crews on assignments, letting both networks use certain file footage and
A tighter advertising market has led network executives to hunt for savings. The climate has only worsened since the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks, which caused news gathering budgets to balloon.
ABC and CBS both say the video deal has been a success, saving money that has been used for other things.
Given the consolidation of media businesses, the new talks between normally bitter competitors were probably inevitable, said Danny Schechter, a media critic for Mediachannel.org.
even consolidating office space in bureaus. Both networks say there have been no talks about sharing on-airtalent, or any other arrangement that would be readily visible to viewers.
MSNBC TV Two years ago, CBS, ABC and Fox News Channel reached a broad agreement to share video on several stories. The results of that agreement were seen Monday, when CBS News aired footage gathered by ABC's affiliate in New York, which was first on the scene at the Rockaways plane crash.
The talks between ABC and CBS predated Sept. 11. Executives had no idea when or if an agreement would be reached.
The two networks are at a fiscal disadvantage to NBC, which can share resources with the cable networks CNBC and MSNBC to amortize costs.
"Economic realities are forcing an erosion of the usual turf boundaries," Schechter said. "The problem is, there's already so much similarity between the networks ... If you asked people the difference between ABC News and CBS News, I think they'd have difficulty answering."
The network talks with CNN were reportedly more extensive and, if an agreement could have been reached, would likely have meant sharing some on-air resources. Talks stalled concerning control issues.
"Each network feels like it could do a better job than anybody else," CBS President Leslie Moonves said earlier this fall. "Network pride factored in."
