Anna Cooban reports on the British government’s decision to clear Paramount Skydance’s $110 billion takeover of Warner Bros. Discovery due to assurances on media diversity from the company.

British regulators on Thursday gave Paramount the greenlight for its $81 billion takeover of Warner Bros. Discovery, with some new assurances from the company — clearing another hurdle for the mega merger while it still faces challenges elsewhere. The U.K.'s Competition and Markets Authority cleared the pending acquisition, ruling that a Paramount-Warner tie up does not pose a “substantial lessening of competition” in the country. Meanwhile, Britain's Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport said it also wouldn't intervene — on the basis of several “legally-binding commitments” from Paramount related to its footprint in U.K. broadcasting and on-demand entertainment.

The deal still faces substantial legal challenges in the U.S., where state attorneys general have sued to block the purchase.
