Hunt 'scrupulous' on BSkyB bid Conservative MP Damian Collins has said that Culture Secretary Jeremy Hunt scrupulously followed the advice of Ofcom, the independent media regulator, in his handling of the News Corporation bit for BSkyB. Speaking to Today presenter Evan Davis, he said it was "perfectly reasonable" for the culture secretary to talk to major media organisations, as he also spoke to those opposing the BSkyB bid. "He's taken a broad sweep of advice, and crucially he took the advice of the independent regulator," he said. But he accepted that there were "questions to be asked" about the details of the relationship, following the release of emails at the Leveson inquiry.
