re: [Update] The News Corp scandal
It appears Murdoch has now reneged on a commitment to make Sky News independent.

Phone hacking scandal: Murdoch pulls Sky News plan to force inquiry

Rupert Murdoch has withdrawn a promise to spin off Sky News in a desperate attempt to rescue his plan to take full control of BSkyB.
This will now undoubtedly be referred to the competition commission, which I suspect was the plan all along. It is not impossible to imagine that he has a few "friends" on that commission.
