We know how some people get irritated by the nearsight of links inbetween a post that's why we begun testing out two new features to help reduce that, Random Posts and Related Posts. Random Posts can be seen if you switch from the mobile version of our website to desktop (the option can be found below Insidus). As the name implies readers will see links to several articles on our site and it changes everytime a user gets into another link or even reloads the website. Basically, it doesn't stick to particular articles like Related Posts.     Related Posts can be seen if you are using the mobile version of our site and entering the post on Insidus. To help readers better understand this tool what it does is source content from the tags seen at the bottom of an article or sidebar on the left through the desktop version of the site. These two gadgets will replace the "Also read" sections of the post or at least most of it. We know some readers who love Car

Here is what appears to be the rumored full leadership structure of Warner Bros. Discovery: Warner Bros. Discovery's structure (take with a grain of salt) will focus on a coherent, streamlined structure in order to accelerate the company's direct-to-consumer strategy, with the intent of unleashing the potential of Discovery WarnerMedia's combined holdings. Under WBD, distribution, commercialisation and licensing operations from Discovery (Discovery Global Enterprises) and WarnerMedia (WB Domestic & International Releasing, WB TV Distribution, WB Home Entertainment, WB Consumer Products, WB Themed Entertainment) will all be centralised under a new organisation known as Warner Bros.

Could Televista Be The Next Channel To Go Off Air On MultiChoice's DStv And GOtv Packages?

Image
Televista is a Nigerian based entertainment channel offering English dubbed telenovelas from Spanish speaking markets including Latin America, Colombia and Brazil. The channel also featured news, local dramas and reality shows. Over the years, Televista had become redundant I remember at one point the channel chose to repeat the batch of content viewers had come across on the station and now the channel opted to repeat shows mainly from Telemundo and Zee World. Although executives remain quiet on the developments of a brand, I have a hunch on why Televista abandoned most Spanish speaking markets and transitioned to Bollywood programming. In 2015, AMC International launched a competitive channel to NBCUniversal's Telemundo called EVA. The channel was also home to Spanish based programming in Latin America and expanded to other regions such as Colombia, Mexico and Argentina.   Fast forward to 2020, the channel was packed with mostly repeats as Bold And The Beautiful from CB

History: MultiChoice Bleeding Money On The SABC And eMedia Investments

Image
( You can now share on Facebook ) In 1998, the SABC began to broadcast two TV channels to the rest of Africa: SABC Africa, a news service, and Africa 2 Africa, an entertainment channel to the DStv platform. Few years down the line, the pair were merged only to be subsequently discontinued in 2008. A year prior, SABC News International launched  alongside a potential pay-tv operator e.Sat TV hoping to take on the likes of Telkom Media, On Digital Media and MultiChoice. Feeling that the market was big enough for two operators the plan was later abolished.   In 2008, it was announced that e.Sat TV would instead work as a channel supplier just like Siyaya TV with Moja Love to MultiChoice's DStv with the eNews Channel known to the current audience as eNCA. In 2013, the SABC signed a R500 million deal with MultiChoice which would see the launch of the revised SABC News International which was shortened to SABC News accompanied by an entertainment channel, SABC Encore. In 2017
