UK competition authority opposes Fox takeover of Sky on media plurality concerns

(Telecompaper) The UK's Competition and Markets Authority has opposed 21st Century Fox's proposed bid to acquire all of pay-TV provider Sky on concerns it would give the Murdoch family too large a voice in the UK news media. However, if Disney's takeover of much of Fox goes ahead, the concerns over media plurality would fall away, the regulator said.
