Victoria To Try To Recruit Other States To Fill Coverage After TVN's Split With Sky Channel

Victoria "will attempt to recruit other states to fill the void left by TVN’s split with Sky Channel," according to Matt Stewart of the HERALD SUN. South Australia, West Australia and Tasmania "are future targets to pad out coverage on TVN." TVN, in its current form, "will continue for no more than a month before its future is determined." Racing Victoria "is determined to have various media components brought under the one roof, including racing.com, radio station RSN and the key elements of TVN." It is believed TVN’s online news site, racingnetwork, "is unlikely to survive, as Racing Victoria has its own ever-expanding site, racing.com." A source said that the expansion of Racing Victoria’s media arm "will provide some TVN talent with employment chances." In other developments, "it is likely Victorian pubs and clubs will be providing Australia-wide coverage within a fortnight, with pictures provided by TVN to be shown on one of Sky’s three channels" (HERALD SUN, 12/31).
