Summary
The initial ruling complicates Walt Disney Co's plan to buy assets from Rupert Murdoch, including Sky. The British competition regulator said Murdoch buying all of Sky would give him too much influence, but set out possible remedies for the $15 billion deal to go ahead. The government will make the final decision on the takeover on May 1.
