The deal will go through in April. Not sure whether this is a good thing or bad thing for Kudos.

Bloody Murdoch Dodgy

Will the BBC still commission Kudos if News Corporation owns it...?

Good question. I don't know.

Where the heck is Connie James and her plots to bring down the Murdoch family when you need her? Treacherous cow must have had some really creative ideas....Silba

I don't think this can be an altogether good thing. But I distrust the motivations of big business and the mainstream. No matter who owns them, my biggest concern would be whether or not Kudos can keep making their own decisions. That will depend on how "active" a boss News Corporation will be. If they are smart, they will realize that it is in their best interest to let Kudos keep on keepin' on without interference. They wanted Kudos for a reason. Hopefully News Corporation main function will be throwing cash at them to make more and better programming and leave the production decisions to Kudos.

And flights of angels sing thee to thy rest.
