Realistically, Ten probably need to get something quite substantial when the Cricket Australia broadcasting rights are next up for grabs (that would be fairly soon-ish, wouldn’t it?) after failing to get any AFL or NRL last year.

Failing to get any AFL and NRL is not what I call it. They can still get the AFL[quote=“cmo, post:11, topic:590, full:true”]
Big revenue jump for ten in December and sure to follow I’m January with the big bash continuing to dominate.

Ten have really let the promotional push slip,through their fingers. Idiots.

Hopefully they continue to grow revenue. They need more money to be made to invest in more variety of programming, news and any sports rights in the future.

Also shows without sport ten are screwed.

They’ve promoted the news throughout the BBL. Unlike 2015, there isn’t many Australian shows they could promote as it is dedicated to I’m A Celebrity in the schedule. Yes and no, as Ten could team up with Fox Sports for the TV rights, to make it more affordable. Sport needs to be financially viable for Ten, rather then spending big on sports rights that may have no use in it.

The usual trite response from you. When does it stop?

No they didn’t promote the news. They promoted having big bash stories on the news …not the brand or the identities.

And they haven’t promoted jack shit in terms of shows. Nothing for the living room, modern family, NCIS, new eps of returning shows. You are nothing but an apologist.

And in terms of sports…go big or go home. They’ve failed in every rights deal. Every single knew expect the big bash. Every sprt they currently have aside from the big bash is a spectacular failure.

And if they get some sort of crumby afl deal with no prime time it is also a complete waste. So you really need to stop talking crap.

“Ten backs regional networks…” SMH

Probably because Ten is in itself a regional network - they sure don’t play alongside the big boys at the big boys’ table…

Exactly, indeed ten need to be forced to show more news. And if they merge with any regional player they need to be forced to produce local news for the respective markets.

Liz Baldwin Appointed General Manager, Digital.

Network Ten today announced the appointment of Liz Baldwin as General Manager, Digital, effective 12 February.

Ms Baldwin was previously Network Ten’s Digital Executive Producer. In her new role, she will be responsible for the company’s digital media business – including the industry-leading online catch-up and streaming service tenplay – and will report to Network Ten Chief Executive Officer, Paul Anderson, and Chief Programming Officer, Beverley McGarvey.

Ms Baldwin’s appointment follows the resignation of Network Ten Chief Digital Officer, Rebekah Horne.

Mr Anderson said: “Rebekah and her team have done a great job over the past three years, launching tenplay in September 2013 and building it into one of the leading online entertainment services in Australia.

“From a standing start less than three years ago, tenplay now covers more distribution platforms than any other online television service. Last year, tenplay generated an average of 25 million page views and 13.5 million video views a month,” he said.

“Rebekah is leaving Ten with our thanks for her great contribution and our best wishes for the future.

“We are delighted to welcome Liz to her role. She is one of the best and brightest digital media executives in Australia, with extensive experience in strategy, content and technology. Our digital media business has seen significant growth in recent years and Liz is the ideal person to maintain and build on that growth,” Mr Anderson said.

Channel Ten and Foxtel content will screen in Aussie shopping centres, as Multi-Channel Network (MCN) looks to expand in the digital out-of-home (DOOH) sector, AdNews reports.

The group has made an additional investment in its TV-OOH offering, taking its network to 36 large format, full motion 16:9 screens.

MCN CEO Anthony Fitzgerald says the screens are part of its strategy to create a unified platform for advertisers to reach the customer journey.

“The outdoor media market is one of the most rapidly growing advertising sectors in Australia,” Fitzgerald says.

“With MCN investing and innovating in a true television-style OOH network, we can offer advertisers an incredible opportunity to close the loop and extend their message through to the point of purchase.”

TV-OOH can be used by advertisers for localised messaging, day parting, augmented reality, social media amplification and live-streaming.

TEN’s share price fell 14c to $1.25 today after a release titled “TEN’s Revenue Jumps 13% In December 2015 Half”

investors not buying the spin.

Wait wasn’t it 10 cents a few weeks ago?

Never got down to 10c but it was close. They recently did a 10:1 consolidation, probably to avoid the embarrassment of a share price of TEN cents.

Because people need another distraction to block my path in shopping centres. :confounded:

TEN closed at $1.07. after 5 consecutive days of 4%+ falls. tomorrow could be the day it drops below what used to be 10c.

I’m going to call it: time to buy. if i was in a position to expand my portfolio a 99c bid would be a no-brainer.

To think i sold for $2.54_adjusted_ just 8 months ago.

It would be a good buy considering ten are already up on last year. I’m wondering if some things are happening behind the scenes for such big drops.

The drops started after the last market update, which showed healthy growth. ten obviously over-promised to shareholders and anything short of an epic turnaround to become the #1 network was disappointment.

I’d predict these drastic drops are still an overreaction tho.

Down another 6.5% today, trading at $1.01.

So if TEN shares were trading pre consolidation, it would actually be at 10c haha

Heh, I might have to buy a few for a laugh. :laughing:

At the moment Ten’s shares are at 9.8c which aren’t good at all.

No they’re at .95 after they consolidated their shares. Can see Ten going below 50 cents in a few months.

keeps going lower though
