UK Culture Secretary ready to intervene in Sky's £1.6bn deal to buy ITV's media business
Culture Secretary Lisa Nandy said she is 'minded to intervene' in Sky's deal to buy ITV's media and entertainment division for £1.6bn ($2.1bn), citing risks to news pluralism and broadcasting diversity. She is considering issuing a public interest intervention notice, which would trigger Ofcom and CMA reviews. The parties have until 20 October to respond.
