Back in April this year, SBS announced it would broadcast the World Athletics Championships in Tokyo, even signing up Seven’s Bruce McAvaney as lead commentator:
Have the circumstances changed that SBS is no longer able to televise the event, and that Nine is now the exclusive Australian broadcaster? Or will SBS and Nine cover the same event, like what they did at the 2002 FIFA World Cup?
The SBS website still has the broadcast schedule for the World Athletics Championships.
EDIT: I posted the issue on the TV Lounge section of TV Tonight, and David Knox replied: “I’ve already asked the question and awaiting clarity.”
