US media giant 21st Century Fox has formally terminated its program supply deal with the Ten Network, which will no longer be able to broadcast popular shows such as "The Simpsons" and "Modern Family". Ten had suspended broadcasts of Fox shows earlier in October after negotiations for a new content deal stalled. Court approval is the final hurdle for the acquisition of Ten by Fox rival CBS Corporation. Ten will present its 2018 "upfronts" in early November.
