BSkyB should be forced to sell some of its 17.9% stake in ITV, the Competition Commission has recommended. The regulator said that BSkyB should either sell all of its shares or cut its stake to below 7.5% and promise not to take a seat on ITV's board.
BSkyB and ITV both said they were studying the report and awaiting a final decision from the government.
Business Secretary John Hutton has until 29 January to decide what action to take on the report's findings.
