Claire Enders was quoted in The Times on BBC may strip free licences from millions in means test. She said  “It is bound to outrage millions of people that they will be paying for their licence fee. There will be 3.5 million extraordinarily angry people.”

Francois Godard was quoted in the Financial Times on France’s Iliad to raise €2bn by selling mobile towers to Cellnex. He said “Selling towers to Cellnex makes sense, the French group was taking advantage of the fact that financial markets are ready to give a higher value to towers when they are set aside in a separate corporate shell than when they are buried in an operator’s balance sheet. But it does not change the Iliad business model.”

Tom Harrington was quoted in the Times on Dame Carolyn, are you sure we will be amused by your TV streaming service? He said  “They are wishfully thinking that BritBox’s subscribers will be in the millions, but look at something like the streaming service Disney Life; that has only 100,000 subscribers. Then there is Now TV, which has fewer than 2m, and that has been around for seven years and has some of the best content in the world.”

Douglas McCabe was quoted in the Financial Times on Guardian owner hits profit benchmark after decades of losses.

Tom Harrington was quoted in the Financial Times on The race to make the next ‘Game of Thrones' He said “If you are global and you can get people to watch the first episode on a global distribution network, you can give it massive prominence. If they want to make it a hit they can probably make it a hit . . . They can put it at the top of the user interface and force it down your throat.”

Tom Harrington was quoted in The Times on Apple takes on Netflix: how the iPhone giant plans to carve out a piece of the streaming TV market. He said “Jay Hunt has been telling producers to be conscious of the Apple brand —they want high quality, but not risqué content. She’s been saying it’ll be like public-service broadcasting for the world, but not huge volume. It’s definitely not creating a new Netflix. They’re spending $1bn, which is a lot — but, compared to Netflix’s $12bn, not spectacular.”

Francois Godard was quoted in Financial Times on Battle for future of France’s Le Monde paper. He said “I’m very suspicious of a foreign billionaire trying to get a foothold in the western establishment through the ownership of media, especially through a newspaper such as Le Monde, which sets the tone and agenda of news in France and beyond."
