Rick Lane to Step Down As 21St Century Fox's Senior Vice President Press Contact: Nathaniel Brown 212-852-7746 [email protected] FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Rick Lane to Step Down as 21st Century Fox’s Senior Vice President of Government Affairs New York, NY – December 6, 2016 – 21st Century Fox today announced that Rick Lane, its Senior Vice President of Government Affairs, is stepping down effective January 1. As one of the Company’s top lobbyists, Mr. Lane played an integral role in shaping Fox’s legislative and regulatory strategy in Washington, D.C. for fifteen years. He also served as the Vice Chairman of 21st Century Fox’s FOXPAC. “We truly value Rick’s insight and deep understanding of the politics and policies that directly impact our business. We wish him the very best and continued success,” said James Murdoch, CEO of 21st Century Fox. “Our team, and the company, have benefited enormously from Rick’s command of the business and the host of complex issues we face every day,” said Chip Smith, EVP, Global Public Affairs and Policy, 21st Century Fox. “On a personal note, I want to thank Rick for his support as I’ve settled into my new role. We wish him all the best.” “Working for Fox has been an incredible experience. Over the last 15 years I have been at the center of every policy fight on content distribution in the digital age, from copyright to tax. I have not only been fortunate to work for a great company, but also to interact on a daily basis with the best and the brightest in the entertainment industry,” said Lane. “As excited as I am about the future, I would be remiss if I did not thank all my Fox colleagues for a wonderful 15 years of support and friendship." Mr. Lane joined News Corporation in 2001 as Vice President of Government Affairs and was promoted to Senior Vice President in 2004. Prior to joining News Corporation/21st Century Fox, Mr. Lane was the Director of E-Commerce and Congressional Affairs for the U.S. Chamber of Commerce.

  • Cablevision and Fox Had an Agreement for Cablevision to Carry WNYW, WWOR, and WTXF That Expired at 11:59 Pm EDT on October 15, 2010
    Cablevision and Fox had an agreement for Cablevision to carry WNYW, WWOR, and WTXF that expired at 11:59 pm EDT on October 15, 2010. They have been negotiating to renew that agreement, but failed to reach a new agreement before the deadline. As a result, Cablevision stopped carrying WNYW, WWOR, and WTXF. This dispute affects only Cablevision subscribers who wish to view programming on WNYW, WWOR, and WTXF. It does not affect Cablevision’s other programming, except as otherwise described below. If Cablevision and Fox reach a new agreement in the future, the affected programming may be restored to Cablevision’s system. Background Cable and satellite operators carry local television broadcast stations based on contracts with the stations. When these contracts end, the parties extend or renew the contract. In almost all cases, agreement is reached and the station is carried without interruption. On some occasions, the operator and the station fail to reach an agreement, and the cable or satellite operator must drop the station until an agreement is reached. These are private agreements, though federal law requires the parties to negotiate with each other in good faith. What can I do while WNYW, WWOR, and WTXF are not available on Cablevision systems? If you wish to view WNYW, WWOR, or WTXF, you may be able to use one of the following options to continue viewing the station: 1. Subscribe to another pay service that is carrying the station. In the affected areas, other available pay services include: AT&T, DIRECTV, DISH Network, RCN (limited areas of Brooklyn), and Verizon FIOS.

  • France's Banijay Group Buys Endemol Shine to Create European Production Giant
    Publication date: 28 Oct 2019 Author: Tim Westcott Director, Research and Analysis, Programming France's Banijay Group buys Endemol Shine to create European production giant Brought to you by Informa Tech France's Banijay Group buys Endemol Shine to 1 create European production giant France-based production company Banijay Group has reached agreement to acquire Endemol Shine Group from Walt Disney Company and US hedge fund Apollo Global Management. The price for the deal was not disclosed but is widely reported to be $2.2 billion. A statement from the group said the deal will be financed through a capital increase of Banijay Group and debt. On closure, subject to regulatory clearances and employee consultations. Post-closing, the combined group will be majority owned (67.1%) by LDH, the holding company controlled by Stephane Courbit's LOV Group, and Vivendi (32.9%), which invested in Banijay in 2014. The merged group said it will own almost 200 production companies in 23 territories and the rights for close to 100,000 hours of content, adding that total pro-forma revenue of the combined group is expected to be €3 billion ($3.3 billion) this year. Endemol Shine Group is jointly owned by Disney, which acquired its 50% stake as part of its acquisition of 21st Century Fox last year, and funds managed by affiliates of Apollo Global Management. Endemol Shine has 120 production labels and owns 66,000 hours of scripted and non- scripted programming and over 4,300 registered formats. Our analysis Endemol Shine Group has been up for sale since last year, and Banijay Group appears to be have been the only potential buyer to have made an offer, despite reported interest from All3Media, RTL Group-owned Fremantle and others.
