the offending entities here were the non executive, independent? directors and Ms Debbie Goodin in particular.
She is a chartered accountant sits on a number of boards inluding oOH Media, APA and Senex Energy.
It was she who should have stood against Gordon and Murdoch when the fateful decision was made to bow to their inglorious threats when the company was far from insolvent.
Peter Tonagh - the CEO of Foxtel- deserves a dishonourable mention also .
I guess he's been so busy terminating staff at Foxtel ( including the much respected MsWeir ) he didn't have time to consider the interests of TEN shareholders.
