Tropfest secures SBS as broadcasting partner
Tropfest has secured a broadcasting partner for the live event on Sunday 17 February.
The news follows the closure of naming rights sponsor Movie Extra which also was broadcasting partner.
Movie Extra was owned by Movie Network Channels, which folded in the wake of Foxtel buying the network’s competitor Showtime.
SBS will broadcast the live event and finalist films as well as the red carpet arrivals.
Nice try, Laverty and Polson. No-one forgot the “Dogs and Cats” thing, or that you closed down the New York enterprise, as you tried to get your business into Dubai. No-one buys this. No-one is GONNA buy this. EVERYONE is completely aware of how much better your previous ad-driven TV partnership was versus being relegated to the SBS ghetto.
