TopTV just issued a statement regarding Current TV (TopTV 406) which TV with Thinus reported yesterday RIGHT HERE, will be closing down by 11 March.
''The future of one of the channels currently being broadcast on TopTV's channel 406, Current TV, is at risk following the channel's carriage agreement with BSkyB in the United Kingdom not being renewed,'' says TopTV, confirming what was reported yesterday.
''As BSkyB is the channel's biggest broadcast client, this will affect their ability to maintain operations, which will in turn impact on the channel being available to the South Africa market,'' says TopTV.
''TopTV is currently in discussions with the channel's management to discuss various options and possible alternative solutions to continue to broadcast the channel. Current TV is also considering other business offers at the moment,'' says TopTV.
