Going down: Carlton
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.SHARES of Carlton Communications, the TV company, were hit by news of the resignation of Stephen Grabiner, chief executive of Carlton's part-owned subsidiary ONdigital, the pay-TV service, after just over a year in the job. Mr Grabiner has been poached by Eventures, an internet investment venture formed by Japan's Softbank and Rupert Murdoch's News Corporation.
ONdigital said that Stuart Prebble, managing director of channels and interactive media at Granada Media Group, will replace Mr Grabiner immediately. Shares in Carlton fell more than 5 per cent as analysts speculated that differences between Mr Grabiner and Carlton's chief executive Michael Green had forced him out of the job.
