"Fox News" part of the international media group owned my tycoon Rupert Murdoch has come into an agreement with the Maharaja Group to air part of their news programming via Channel One MTV. Initially the broadcast will take place for a few hours per day and will be gradually increased over time.
The entry of Fox News will certainly mean that most of the major news broadcasters in the world are available in Sri Lanka. At the moment Channel News Asia and CNN are available in Sri Lanka over FTA & pay television whereas BBC, Al Jazeera, NDTV, etc are available via pay television platforms.
We believe that Channel One MTV will use Fox News in the future to start round the clock operations. The broadcast of the "Fox News" International feed will be commencing next month.

Of all the News Channels in the world....... Why Fox News???
Fox News is one of the most bigoted and biased news channels in the world, leaning towards the US governments policies, and passing judgments over US presidential candidates like Barack Obama. Even the US media groups have stated this fact. Why did MTV decide to air this channels of all the others available.
Any news channel nowadays is biased at least to some degree, but they would have done much better to relay a channel like the BBC, or Al Jazeera instead of FOX News.
Hiru’ FM frequencies to MR’s son?
Saturday, April 26,2008
COLOMBO: Telecommunications Regulatory Commission (TRC) is attempting to grant the radio frequencies issued to ‘Hiru FM’ of ABC Radio Network to ‘Tharunyata Hetak’ organization, reliable sources said Friday.
The organisation, headed by the President’s son Namal Rajapaksa is to start a commercial radio network, the sources said, adding that the Ministry of Mass Media had already given the green light for the project and frequency bands applied from the TRC.
The ABC Radio network was suspended by the Ministry of Mass Media on 27th October last year on the charge of having carried a misleading news report regarding the war.
The network had five radio channels - Hiru FM, Sun FM, Sooriyan FM, Gold FM and Sha FM, which were broadcast on 26 frequency bands.
However, the government re-issued licences to Hiru FM, Sooriyan FM and Gold FM, and only 18 frequencies.
The ABC network was not granted the popular frequency bands of 107.9, 102.9, 100.7 and 102.7.
The station was suspended after accusations by the government that it had been biased towards the main opposition United National Party.
Its Director Reynor Silva is the brother of Western Provincial Councilor Duminda Silva.
Days after the suspension, the councilor met the President and crossed over to the government.
After this change in loyalties, the ABC management decided to alter the political line of all its radio stations.
On April 08th, it was reported that relatives and friends of the President have shown an interest to obtain the nine frequencies that had earlier been given to ABC radio network.
