MultiChoice and eMedia have secretly settled their long-running TV feud regarding the carriage of e.tv channels on DStv and the blackout on Openview of SuperSport content acquired by the SABC.

The article from News24 discusses the resolution of a dispute between MultiChoice and eMedia concerning the broadcasting rights for South African Broadcasting Corporation (SABC) sports content.

However, following a Competition Commission complaint by eMedia, the two companies have reached an agreement. This deal allows SABC to broadcast sports on Openview, ensuring that viewers can watch major events like the Africa Cup of Nations and the upcoming T20 World Cup. The agreement marks a significant step in resolving the high-stakes drama over sports broadcasting rights, benefiting sports fans across South Africa by providing broader access to live sports content.
