Is this a good thing or a bad thing? Why do i feel a Sky News operating service will appear in the coming months…on Ten… or a formidable merge with TenSky… (i know , bashful thinking)
The article does state it could bring the Network out of administration , this could be a good thing? If true.
Sad thing is that is so true. I admit I was racist towards Waleed because he was muslim (I freely will admit that) which prevented me from hearing his opinions on certain issues. Not so much anymore, his editorials makes me pause and think.
They might end up combining resources for some things but they’d be mad to lose Ten’s own identity. They might end up allowing Ten’s fourth FTA channel to be Sky.
My thoughts exactly. I can’t believe that people still actually believe the rubbish they publish. One comment; “I for one will not be watching Sunrise anymore if Carrie Bickmore is taking over, I can’t stand her.”
Why can’t Daily Mail just vanish never to be heard of again?
IThe thing that’s really shot them on the foot is that the multi channels cost Ten a fortune to run. (Lost revenue) Apparently they split revenue between CBS for 11, which was a stupid idea and majority of the content on that channel is reruns.
For me the downfall of ten started in the News Revolution. They used to be the big event network - Big Brother, TBL, idol and recently Masterchef. Their news brand was respected and successful and they went overboard trying to “expand it” at a rapid rate and not slowly. I think ten really shot themselves in the foot moving Neighbours to 11 and axing and not resting Big Brother. The show would have still had life if they had given it a few years break.
They lost their mojo in taking risks and being a youth network that people wanted to watch, then by the time they realised they needed to start taking risks and be bold and exciting again it’s been too late and they have no money and the audience has gone elsewhere.
It was a bad strategy to begin with. Trying to take on Seven and Nine was lunacy. And it went on for nearly 2 years so its not like they didn’t give it a chance.
