AOL plans to launch TV channel - report
FRANKFURT, Aug 22 (Reuters) - America Online Inc. Chief Executive Steve Case said in a magazine interview on Sunday that the Internet service provider plans to launch a television channel called AOL-TV.
Germany's Focus magazine reported Case as saying AOL planned to offer e-mail and chat-room services over the channel, which would be screened on television and not over the Internet.

Unlike its competitor Microsoft Corp , Case said AOL was not interested in buying up the German television cable network, which Deutsche Telekom AG is selling off.

However, Case said it was possible that AOL could participate in a German television deal with media giant Bertelsmann AG , its joint venture partner in AOL Europe
