News Corp has increased its stake in Foxtel to 65 per cent following the completion of the pay-TV company’s merger with Fox Sports. News Corp has indicated that integrating the two businesses is the immediate priority, and any decision on dropping the Foxtel branding is unlikely in the near-term. Foxtel may also launch new streaming services with their own branding, as part of its strategy to increase its customer base.
