21st Century Fox Expected to Revive Bid to Take Over Sky

Politico: Second-guessing Rupert Murdoch is a fool’s game, but that hasn’t stopped media commentators in London from conjecturing that the media mogul is preparing to resurrect its multibillion-pound bid for full control of Sky, the U.K. satellite broadcaster. Enders Analysis, a respected media consultancy, gave intellectual weight to the question, asserting in a research note that it was a question of “when, not if” Murdoch has another shot at buying the 61 percent of Sky that he doesn’t already own. “We believe [21st Century Fox] is still committed to gaining full ownership of the company.”
