After a week in Paris, Nine Entertainment’s chief executive, Mike Sneesby, will be back at work on Wednesday just as 500 of his journalists return to the newsroom after a five-day strike.

Sneesby spent a week at the Olympics in Paris where he entertained sponsors and clients, as well as carrying the Olympic torch in the run-up to the games. Nine paid $305m for the exclusive rights to the next five games, from Paris in 2024 to Brisbane in 2032.
