		Stokes matched it, and Packer was free to pass on to the next world, if it was there, knowing that’d he struck one last blow on behalf of the family.
		Kerry Stokes is convinced – he really is – that Packer and Murdoch, through the agency of PBL and News Limited, entered into a conspiracy to steal the payTV broadcast rights to the AFL and the NRL, thereby destroying Seven’s fledgling payTV service, then known as C7.
		Stokes is a man who has never allowed the odds to dictate terms to him and he will not be denied what he sees as his due: in this case, the punishment of the conspirators and the world made new again with his network given a fair go.

		Sackville's detailed assessment of Stokes' credibility as a witness leaves one searing impression: the evidence given by the head of Network Seven throughout the C7 case is not to be relied upon.

		It is clear that Stokes’ first wife, Dorothy Ebert, has cooperated with the magazine, especially given the 10-strong online picture gallery, which includes number two and three of the billionaire cuddling up to women other than one of his three wives.
		Stokes’ original business partner, Kevin Merifield, is quoted saying that “he was keen on chasing the old skirt” and the magazine then trawls through the history of his three marriages when it is hardly relevant to the C7 mega-litigation.
		Stokes is not a man who enjoys interviews or media scrutiny at the best of times, so he will no doubt be dreading the Seven AGM in November.

		Immediately before Stokes took his legal action in 2002, Nine was predominant, Foxtel was struggling to gain any real foothold, and Seven was mired in second spot and worried about preserving its longstanding strength as a sports broadcaster by extending its reach into subscription TV, through C7.

		And with WAN and Fairfax, Stokes is not able to play any new cards until the changes to the cross-media ownership legislation are proclaimed early next year.
		Despite what Kerry Stokes is prepared to tell us at this point about his intentions, he is clearly an aggressive buyer of media assets and his partnership with KKR will be a more active one than that forged a month ago by James Packer over at PBL.

		Kerry Packer was a TV freak, with an uncanny ability to foresee what Australians wanted to see on the box - his Nine TV network has maintained a supreme ratings lead for about 30 years.
		Kerry Packer's huge play just before Christmas and his death to retain the broadcast rights to the Australian Football League - $780 million over five years - forced Stokes' Seven network and the Canadian-controlled Network Ten to match the offer in a joint deal.
		Although panned at the time, Stokes is now seen as a genius for the idea as it has come at a critical time in the TV battle.
