Ex-chief doomed by failure to chart course

Feb 24, 2013 (The Australian - ABIX via COMTEX) -- Ten Network's outgoing CEO James Warburton unwittingly helped to engineer his own demise in 2009, when he was at the Seven Network. Ten was a market leader in the key 16-39 age demographic at the time, but Seven and Nine launched new digital channels that cannibalised Ten's core viewers. Ten has also made a number of other costly mistakes in recent years, including an ill-fated bid to bulk up its news offerings and the launch of some high-profile but unsuccessful reality shows.
