ITN’s archive footage division, ITN Source, has signed a “six figure” global licence agreement with Al Jazeera.
The deal gives Al Jazeera and independent production companies making programmes for it unlimited access to ITN Source’s footage libraries, which include more than 800,000 hours of video footage from news outlets including Granada, ITN, Reuters, Channel 4 and British Pathe.
The license agreement covers unlimited global transmissions on the Al Jazeera’s television networks, websites and its YouTube channel pages for five years.
