Will SKT suffer political interference as have TEL and AIA, or will they be saved by the election?
Sky fears rivals will win numbers game
Sky Television says it is worried that the Government may be swayed by calls to split up or otherwise hobble the broadcaster, and that numbers may be against it.
The Culture and Heritage Ministry is conducting a review of broadcasting regulation and is due to report back to the Cabinet next month.
Options could include the "unbundling" of Sky set-top boxes, "anti-siphoning controls" that would limit its ability to buy exclusive broadcasting rights to sporting events, and "must carry" obligations that might force Sky to carry competing channels on terms set by regulators.
