A decision by the Australian Competition & Consumer Commission on whether it would approve the acquisition of Ten Network by Lachlan Murdoch and Bruce Gordon is said to be imminent. They have emerged as the leading contenders to buy Ten following reports that hedge fund Oaktree Capital has withdrawn its offer, which was made jointly with Anchorage Capital Group. Murdoch and Gordon are believed to have offered around $A250m for Ten.
