ASIC launches action against ex-Tennis Australia directors Harold Mitchell and Steve Healy over 2013 tennis rights
The Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC) has launched federal court action against the former directors of Tennis Australia, Harold Mitchell and Steve Healy, for allegedly withholding information from the Tennis Australia board when it was deciding on the sport’s broadcasting rights in 2013.
ASIC’s case against Mitchell and Healy relates to the decision made in 2013, which saw the Seven Network retain the broadcasting rights to the tennis for a further five years.
When “industry legends” think they have all the answers
Anyone who knows – or has had the misfortune of working with or for Harold Mitchell – knows exactly what’s going on here. He’s guilty as sin. Greasing the palms of his mates. What a vile man.
This couldn’t happen to a nicer person.
