The law is the law until it isn't. Murdoch had the media laws changed. They wouldn't have bothered if he isn't getting ten.
I am expecting to see the judge make a finding that breaks precedent and causes huge issues. What's more, the judgement will stand because a right leaning government isn't going to let a left leaning organisation take over a right leaning media space. It'd be suicide for them in the same way that agreeing with Hanson to have an inquiry regarding the ABC is an early Christmas.
Id be shocked if KM don't offer the ten deal and CBS aren't banned from voting because they are in the same situation as ten while ten are allowed to vote.
back office political favours vs the law....
