Britain said Rupert Murdoch's Twenty-First Century Fox had answered its remaining doubts about the independence of Sky News if the U.S. company buys all of its parent Sky, paving the way for a takeover battle over the pay-TV group.

Fox in April offered to spin off Sky News to Walt Disney to head off objections that Murdoch could have too much influence if he owned Sky as well as his British newspapers.
