BSkyB confirms resignation of James Murdoch as chairman

James Murdoch has resigned as chairman of British satellite TV giant BSkyB, saying he did not want his association with a tabloid phone-hacking scandal to damage the company, it announced Tuesday. “I am aware that my role as chairman could become a lightning rod for BSkyB and I believe that my resignation will help to ensure that there is no false conflation with events at a separate organisation,” Murdoch said in his resignation statement to the board.
