Coca-Cola Telecommunications was a short-lived television distribution arm of [[Columbia Pictures Television]], that was established on November 24, 1986 under The Coca-Cola Company, the former owner of [[Columbia Pictures]], that was responsible for first-run syndicated programming. It was also a merger between CPT's first-run division and "[[The Television Program Source]]". In January 1987, it formed a production division. On December 31, 1987, Coca-Cola Telecommunications closed its doors and it was folded into the reorganized Columbia Pictures Television Distribution (now "Sony Pictures Television") after Coke spun-off its entertainment business and sold it to [[TriStar_Pictures|Tri-Star Pictures, Inc.]] and was renamed as "Columbia Pictures Entertainment, Inc."
