What’s BSkyB up to?
One of these days they’ll create a special Oscar for the “Best performance by a CEO in a scripted Results Announcement”. And it’s certain that James Murdoch would end up with at least a nomination. But like many a movie where there’s a great performance yet the film flops at the box office, the last few days have seen something of a similar nightmare for BSkyB.
