Actually not correct, that was misreported by SMH. Foxtel has only signed a short term extension of its existing deal with Viacom. Negotiations for a new long term deal are continuing, but its happening at a bad time for Foxtel.
As was reiterated this week when he commented on the catastrophe at Rugby Australia, Anderson is still at Ten. So Anderson was negotiating with Foxtel for ViacomCBS, but now has other priorities leading up to his departure?
If they have someone in that role then it was assumed that changes were coming. Clearly those changes are on the way through so clearly changes will be announced at some point.
