News Corp (NWSA.O) has told Britain it might separate Sky News from BSkyB (BSY.L) to avoid a lengthy review of its move to take full control of the satellite broadcaster, the Financial Times reported. Citing three people familiar with talks between News Corp and the government, the FT said on Thursday that selling the 24-hour satellite news channel was one option the Rupert Murdoch-led media group was considering. Britain's Department for Culture, Media and Sport, which is examining the proposed 7.8 billion-pound ($12.5 billion) bid, declined to comment on the report, as did News Corp.
