The culture secretary says the deal could affect free expression in the media and the variety of Britain's news landscape.
What the coverage shows
Both outlets focus on Lisa Nandy saying she is “minded to intervene” in Sky’s £1.6bn move involving ITV’s entertainment arm, and both connect that to further scrutiny of the deal. The BBC extract emphasizes concerns about free expression and the variety of Britain’s news landscape, while The Guardian US says the move paves the way for deeper scrutiny and is the only outlet here to mention the deal creating the UK’s biggest commercial broadcaster.
