Network Ten today (9/02/07) announced the Nine Network would sub-license up to 25 (twenty five) US '60 Minutes' stories per year from TEN.
TEN has exclusive Australian broadcast rights to US-produced '60 Minutes' content under its long-term program supply agreement with CBS Paramount International Television.
Nine will have a specific time from the US telecast date to inform TEN it has selected a certain '60 Minutes' story(ies) for broadcast on Nine.
TEN's chief executive officer, Grant Blackley, said: "TEN sought expressions of interest from all Australian free to air broadcasters, and the Nine Network positioned themselves as preferred bidder.
"To that end, TEN negotiated with Nine towards a commercial outcome with which we are absolutely delighted.
"This arrangement provides TEN an efficient way to manage the literally hundreds of hours of CBS News and '60 Minutes' content delivered under our agreement with CBS Paramount."
Mr Blackley added TEN continued to evaluate where US '60 Minutes' stories not selected by Nine would feature in its schedule.
CBS produces approximately 100 '60 Minutes' segments each year
Terms of the multi-year arrangement between TEN and Nine are confidential.
I haven't gotten anything done , but whatever. Today was a loss. So it goes. I've just been sitting around not getting anything done. I can't be bothered with anything these days, but I don't care.

I've just been letting everything happen without me lately, but oh well. I haven't been up to much these days. Today was a complete loss. Shrug. More or less nothing seems important, but such is life.

I've just been letting everything wash over me recently, but pfft. Shrug. I feel like a bunch of nothing. Whatever. Basically nothing noteworthy going on right now, but I guess it doesn't bother me.

Sure, I agree. But I also agree with this statement: Breathing is good, not breathing is bad.

I've just been staying at home waiting for something to happen. Oh well. I haven't been up to anything recently. Pretty much nothing exciting happening lately, but I guess it doesn't bother me.
