Both groups have undertaken that if the operation is finalized, they would buy out the 33.33% equity interest held by France Télévisions at a definitive value of €45 million.
France’s competition watchdog, the Autorité de la Concurrence, announced that it will launch an in-depth review, known as “phase 2,” of the merger project of TF1 and M6, the country’s top two commercial broadcasters.
The Israeli pay TV platform will now offer M6's content, collected from a range of popular French channels, which include M6, W9, 6ter, Paris Première and Téva.
The Medyapim-MF Yapim production broadcasted on Fox Turkey, has secured sales in a total of 70 countries. The deal marks the first time the M6 Group will broadcast a Turkish series on one of their linear channels.
