Network Ten made a short announcement yesterday to the ASX about its relationship with a major US supplier:

"On 27 October 2017, Twentieth Century Fox Film Corporation issued a letter of termination in respect of the Fox Output Licence Agreement between Fox and Network Ten. The termination was stated to be effective 6 October 2017."
