EVERYTEXT EXPANDS IN SPAIN Modern Times Group MTG AB, the international media group, today announced that Everytext, has launched its services on the Canal 7 TV channel in Madrid. This agreement supplements Everytext's existing services to other national and regional TV broadcasters in Spain. Everytext has today launched its teletext services on Canal 7, a privately owned regional TV station in the Madrid area, which focuses on delivering entertainment programming to a youth TV audience. The agreement is for four years. Everytext already produces teletext services for TeleMadrid, the largest TV channel in the Madrid area as well as to other national and local TV channels. However, Canal 7 and TeleMadrid reach a different profile of audience, and the two channels have a combined reach of 6 million people.
