Because
he Helped the Americans save big Cash
by Deleting the Endemol Big Brother Production.
There was even a 5* SkyMoviesHD
the other week.
Also
Viacom
(merger with CBS Corporation pending)
He could get even more Shows
from CBS
if they finally merge.

How has he been promoted?
Hasn't channel 5 recorded their lowest viewership in years and a fall in shares since he took over?

On the plus side we can probably look forward to more foul language,unfunny comedies and totally ridiculous every day tasks performed in the nude! (Probably by people who don't know what sex they are or who/what they want to have it off with)! :shrug:
