Katie Allen of The Guardian newspaper in London reports Thursday that Reuters will begin supplying video to The Financial Times‘ Web site.
Allen wrote, “Reuters already supplies photographs, world news and business news to FT.com. It recently signed a three-year deal to be the Pearson-owned newspaper’s major data provider. Its currency rates, company profiles and other services feature prominently in the relaunched FT.com market data section.
“The agency believes the video deal reflects newspapers’ efforts to become multimedia outlets with global audiences hungry for more than just text.
“Reuters video will complement the FT’s in-house production, which already provides more than 100 videos a month and is intending to raise that number next year.”
