On the side of the four media houses I believe they have a right to have a commercial discussion with GOtv and the others since content drives advertising revenue

I tend to believe GOtv, Startimes are "aerial" providers. If I am an advertiser, and I want my audience to be KBC viewers, I would put my advert on KBC and not GOtv. In the same breadth, the "aerial" providers should not be able to dictate a user's viewing experience. If I'm viewing KBC via Startimes, at no time should I see Startimes or ElimuTV or Citizen TV related advert without me the viewer switching stations.
