BSkyB boss: 'I don't work for Rupert Murdoch, remember' • The Register

BSkyB boss: 'I don't work for Rupert Murdoch, remember' • The Register: "Jeremy Darroch - the actual boss of BSkyB - reportedly reminded hacks yesterday about the distinction between his firm and Murdoch's corporation. "I would emphasise that it's important to remember that Sky and News Corporation are separate companies," he said. "We believe that Sky's track record as a broadcaster is the most important factor in determining our fitness to hold a licence." His comments come as UK watchdog Ofcom continues to scrutinise whether BSkyB, which trades as Sky, is "fit and proper" to hold a broadcasting licence."
Difficult to credit this man's chutzpah, when the animal Sam Chisholm ran Sky throughout its breakthrough years in as ruthless an attack-dog style as his boss, The Digger, would have done himself.
Note The Sun continues charming.
