You may not realise the popularity of Foxtel’s sporting channels in rural areas (especially Fox League in country NSW and Queensland). Pubs and clubs in these areas rely on live sport to pull in customers especially on Friday nights and on weekends.
NHK is a good one. I’ll often watch a bulletin before bed.
There are options for internet in all those areas inc satellite internet, Foxtel doesn’t need to service an entire satellite distribution for that.
Remember during the cricket and AFL rights, Fox and Murdoch were saying; “you can’t pick Ten cause they’ll be sold and you’ll have no idea who will pick them”
Well, well, well, this is showing how stupid these sporting organisations are.
Pretty much confirmed everything I’ve always thought of this bloke. He’s got to go.
Isn’t this the same guy who called Emilia Clarke “short and dumpy”
Foxtel apparently getting a 24 hour UFC Channel on September 9, won’t include PPVs.
Haven’t found a media release though.
So, he did it out of bad coordination? And poor thinking?
Surely he should step down?
“Just run up and kick it towards our viewers,” says Bosnich, to which Delany asks if he should kick it “rugby league style”.
“We’ll do it like you would’ve done, mate. You ready?” Delany says
Well anyone with even a passing knowledge of Bozza would be able to guess what happens next
Delaney needs to be sacked. Highly offensive.
If it was for any other media organisation, the Murdoch press would be having this on their front page; just like they did with Costello from Nine.
I’d have thought that Nine might have gone a bit harder on it
Nine want part of Foxtel so they’re playing nice at present.
Is it really that surprising anymore?
