Dive deep into DAZN's audacious quest to conquer global sports broadcasting. Fueled by Sir Len Blavatnik's billions and a recent $1 billion injection from Saudi Arabia's PIF, the streamer has chased massive rights deals from the Bundesliga to the FIFA Club World Cup. But soaring costs have led to over $1.4 billion in annual losses. This episode explores DAZN's strategic moves, key acquisitions like Foxtel, the financial tightrope walk, and the high-stakes race toward profitability with powerful new partners.DAZN, sports broadcasting, Len Blavatnik, Saudi PIF, football rights, streaming losses

Welcome to an audio-led edition of Unmade.

McGuinness and Davies discussed the development of “Yell At Parnell”, a chatbot trained on McGuinness's published columns, and designed to replicate her editorial tone and views. The aim was to extend engagement beyond the limitations of comment sections and to experiment with scaling an opinion columnist's voice. Davies noted that prompt engineering required over 4,000 words to capture not only factual grounding but also the columnist's personality, including humour, tone, and political perspectives.“There is a desperate desire to engage, and this is another opportunity for people to engage. I think that they would also like that opportunity to be supported by the media outlets they're engaging with; I think that it would reverse in some degree the decline in users,” said McGuinness, pointing to closed comments as a missed opportunity for newsrooms.Creative director Emma Barbato took it further, introducing Bruce Ryder, Australia's first fictional AI celebrity, a 1970s larrikin launched as a synthetic brand ambassador (see video below). Audiences bought into Bruce rather than the product: “The intrigue was the storytelling, and him as the product,” she said. Barbato highlighted the creative opportunities available to brands when working with immersive, character-led AI tools, particularly in environments unconstrained by conventional briefs.In contrast, Foxtel's Aaron Mitchie outlined a strictly functional approach. His team is rolling out a bot to eliminate internal admin, trained on corporate policies. “We're purposely trying to be boring,” he said. “The idea is eventually everyone's going to get back a day in their week back from admin.”The panel also raised questions around the ethics of disclosure with users, synthetic identities, emotional attachment to bots, and the future role of anthropomorphised AI in consumer engagement. Barbato ended the panel with a rallying cry for the creative industries, saying, “For the first time in my time in the creative arts, we have no hierarchy of anyone being better. We have zero gatekeepers, and it has attracted a brand new creative. And that's what I'm the most excited about: the community that is coming together. I don't know how long we've got. But right now, it's a garden of Eden with no weeds.”More from Mumbrella…* Mumbrellacast: ABC, SBS and the gender pay gaps data; inside outdoor media; marketers and Google's AI Mode; Resolution Digital's new chapter* SBS beats ABC as gender pay gaps revealed* Catalano slams SCA activist investor over vote meddling* Tropfest organisers hint at ‘epic comeback'* Google launches AI Mode, marketers ponder impact* M+C Saatchi CEO Michael McEwan joins Droga5 MelbourneToday's podcast was edited by Abe's Audio.We'll be back in your inbox tomorrow or on your podcatcher next week.

It was the sudden declines in footy audiences that did it for Suncorp Executive Manager of Media, Greg Kearney and OMD Chief Media Partnerships Officer, Marelle Salib. They knew that diehard sports fans don’t just ditch their teams overnight. But Kearney and Salib had years’ worth of market mix model (MMM) data that countered the volatile numbers coming from OzTAM back in 2023. Those zero ratings, or “doughnuts” per Foxtel Media boss Mark Frain, preceded the split between the pay TV provider and the free-to-air TV networks on measurement, with Foxtel Media breaking away to use Kantar to validate its own return path data from a million subscribers. Digging deeper showed that the ratings were way off for a slew of shows, “and clients were asking what was going on”, per Salib. No measurement system can ever be 100 per cent perfect all of the time, she acknowledges, but OMD has been running Kantar and its own client MMM data in parallel: “What we're seeing is the performance of things like sports sponsorships are remaining stable, and that is a really good indicator of performance … The Kantar data set appears to be really robust,” says Salib. While Suncorp has a sophisticated approach to media investment, Kearney says reach remains a “crucial” input. “We need to know where the audience is, and it's changing so rapidly. If you don't know that, you're significantly behind the eight ball. And secondly, audience numbers are a huge part of the cost equation,” he says. “If you don't get that right, the inputs into your market mix models are going to be off … and you're never going to have a good view on your business outcomes.” Foxtel’s Frain acknowledges the move from one measurement system to another is “pretty challenging” for the industry, but says breaking away and enabling Foxtel Media to plug its pipes into multiple data sources and market mix models “is the best thing we have ever done”. Plus, it gets the pay TV provider closer to closing the loop on how media investment actually delivers a business result. Now Frain’s aiming to plug in more data sources.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Hi everyone, welcome back to TV Reload! I truly appreciate you tuning in for today’s episode, featuring two powerhouse content creators at the top of their game in scripted drama—John Polson and Bruna Papandrea. They join me to discuss their latest project, The Last Anniversary. Bruna Papandrea is an acclaimed Australian film and television producer and the founder of Made Up Stories. Before that, she co-founded Pacific Standard with Reese Witherspoon. Her impressive resume speaks for itself, with hits like Big Little Lies, Nine Perfect Strangers etc. The list goes on. Plus the feature film, The Dry, and the sequel to that, Force of Nature. It’s an absolute honour to have her here to discuss this exciting new TV series, now streaming on Binge and Foxtel. Joining her is John Polson, the director of The Last Anniversary. I’ve been a huge fan of his work since the ’90s, ever since I saw him in The Sum of Us alongside Russell Crowe. Over the years, John has made a remarkable transition behind the camera, working out of New York and making a significant impact in film and television. He’s also the creative force behind Tropfest, the world’s largest short film festival, which has supported countless emerging filmmakers. In this episode: • Bruna shares her favourite Liane Moriarty book and the three key elements she looks for when choosing a story. • John explains how directing a TV series differs from filmmaking and what unique challenges come with signing onto a project like this. • We uncover some fascinating behind-the-scenes details—Did Liane Moriarty want a role in the series? Has Bruna ever considered acting herself? • Plus, we’ll discuss the stellar cast, including Miranda Richardson, why this series has a broader appeal than some of Bruna’s past projects, and an update on Big Little Lies Season 3 (which Liane just finished writing this week!). There’s so much to dive into, with plenty of exclusive insights. So sit back, relax, and enjoy as we explore the incredible world of The Last Anniversary, streaming weekly on Binge and Foxtel!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Welcome to a midweek update from Unmade, on the morning after News Corp's main marketing-industry focused event of the year, D_Coded. Yesterday's big announcement was Tubi. Two months after announcing the sale of Foxtel, News Corp is back in the TV business.Also today, Enero's sinking share price hits the lowest point in more than a decade.News Corp Australia gets back into TV with TubiFor a while now, I've been puzzled by Tubi.It's the biggest asset in the extended News Corp universe not to have a presence in Australia. In the US, Tubi is a big deal. Its share of total TV viewing is nearly 2% and it's bigger than Peacock, Paramount+ and Max. In some quarters it's been bigger than Disney+.Actually, it's not entirely true to say that Tubi has not had a presence in Australia. Tubi has been here all along and repped by Foxtel Media. But it didn't receive much love, even as it built towards 1.3m active monthly users locally.When I interviewed Foxtel boss Patrick Delany this time last year, I told him I was surprised they were not doing more with Tubi.At the time, Delany argued that the reason for Tubi's success in the US is the fact that it's entirely free to its audience. While Australia's free to air networks are available over the airwaves, US viewers are used to paying for everything they watch via cable. So Tubi was a bigger point of difference, he argued.However, I suspect that was not the only reason. With Foxtel about to pass into the ownership of DAZN, Tubi now represents News Corp's seat back at the table of television. It didn't make sense for News Corp to go hard until the Foxtel deal was done.Tubi has a straightforward business model. There's no paid membership tier. It's pureplay FAST - free ad-supported streaming TV.That puts Tubi in the same space as 7plus, 9now, Tenplay, along with global players like Paramount's Pluto TV. And of course, with the FAST services being offered by the connected TV providers.Incidentally, Tubi lives within the other half of the Murdoch empire, Fox Corp. News Corp is effectively a local rep.In today's podcast I interview News Corp's executive chairman Michael Miller. He pushes back against my assumption that Tubi lacks premium content. And while it's true that Tubi has a deep archive, a look at the home page this morning reminds me of the experience of standing in the discount section of my local video store. They looked like blockbusters, but I just hadn't heard of them.(Titanic 2, anyone? Jack's back… and he's got a score to settle about the whole floating door episode.)Tubi's secret weapon is the world's favourite price point: free. There are plenty of Australians who can't or won't afford to pay for their streaming.And its not-so-secret weapon is the marketing firepower of News Corp. Would Kayo or Binge have grown without the company's cross promotion?In my conversation with Miller, he places Tubi as a “top three or four” marketing priority for the year.And News Corp is backing the push with an aggressive price point - a launch price of a $15cpm.Considering that's likely to be big brand advertising on the main lounge room screen, that's an aggressive price.By the way, in case you can't read the small print on the screen behind sales boss Barrett in the photo above, the price is for campaigns with a minimum spend of $20,000, running before June 30. And “independent measurement unavailable”.The rest of today's conversation with Miller spans the other announcements around D_Coded, including marketer-friendly expansions of its Intent Connect planning system, and the company's continuing efforts to make the concept of engaged reach a thing.Miller also makes it clear that News Corp still views the coming election and US trade war concerns as a delay, not an end to the News Media Bargaining Code framework. “We have been patient,” he says.Unmade Index fights off Trumpcession fears as Enero sinks to decade-long lowDespite an early selloff triggered by global concerns over a looming Trumpcession, the Unmade Index bounced back in later trading yesterday to finish flat.The biggest local weight on the Unmade Index, Nine, was lifted by its majority-owned real estate platform Domain. Nine was up by 1.3%, while Domain rose 1.8%.ARN Media was up by 4.9%, taking it back above a $200m market capitalisation.Among stocks moving in the other direction, print and marketing group IVE lost 8.6%, while Seven West Media lost 3.2% to land on its lowest point since January. Southern Cross Austereo was down by 3.6%.Enero Group, owner of ad agency BMF among others, slumped by 6.7% to land on its lowest share price in more than a decade.The Unmade Index ticked up by a fraction, rising by 0.09% to land on 551.2 points.Time to leave you to your Thursday.

British streaming platform DAZN are being courted by New Zealand Rugby to make an 11th hour bid for the rugby rights deal up after this year.

The New Zealand Herald reports NZR is talking to DAZN - who are currently in the process of buying Australia's Foxtel. Sportstalk host D'Arcy Waldegrave explains further.

ESPN, Fubo, Netflix, Amazon, DAZN, and the NFL dominated the news headlines over the holiday season. In the first StreamTime Sports episode of 2025, host Chris Stone is joined by technology editor Steve McCaskill to break down all of the biggest stories of the opening weeks of 2025. Key Talking Points: What caused the collapse of the Venu Sports joint venture between ESPN, Fox Sports, and Warner Bros Discovery? What Fubo's merger with Hulu means for the sports streaming disruptor moving forward? Will Netflix's successful NFL and WWE forays mean more live sports investment? What is next for the Premier League and Amazon as their deal ends? Why has DAZN acquired Foxtel in Australia? Can TGL drive interest from its successful debut? 

This week, I discuss the Disney and Fubo deal, what it means for subscribers and the impact of Venu Sports no longer launching in the market. I detail the deal terms and what's being misreported, separating facts from guesses. I also discuss viewership numbers from Netflix's debut of WWE's Monday Night Raw, final global viewership numbers for Netflix's NFL games on Christmas and complete NFL season viewership data on Peacock. Finally, I highlight Diamond Sports Group's emergence from Chapter 11 bankruptcy, DAZN's plans to acquire Foxtel, MSG Networks blackout dispute with Altice and TV news from the CES show.Podcast produced by Security Halt Media
