It's going to be beneficial for both sides, after 22 years with Murdoch he will know a lot of people within BskyB which has to be good for VM. An BskyB will also have a man on the "inside" at VM.
After 22 years in one company he will have good friends and strong allegancies. He will be professional of course but does he still go for dinner with friends from his 22 years with Murdoch, an do those friends still work within murdochs empire
Of course the inner workings of VM will be discussed over informal dinner chats, Murdoch must of trusted him to put him in charge of Sky Italia and News Int in be uk.
