But this should not affect the creation of a separate company for Sky News, with Independent National Directors.
Vince Cable would be ideal as the new Chairman of Sky News, appointed by the Secretary of State with the approval of the relevant Select Committee.
The other Independent National Directors should be elected by and from among Sky subscribers, each of whom would vote for one candidate, with the requisite number elected at the end.
And cross-subsidy being what it is (although even if it were not), they could very usefully double up as the, hitherto somewhat ineffective, Independent National Directors of The Times and the Sunday Times.
This should happen regardless of whether or not Murdoch was even so much as still at liberty in this country.
