Members of the Block the Merger Coalition, including Alan Cumming-backed groups, have submitted evidence to UK Culture Secretary Lisa Nandy, urging her to intervene in the $110 billion Paramount-Warner Bros. Discovery merger. The coalition argues that the deal could reduce media plurality, impact UK documentarians' ability to tell diverse stories, and potentially eliminate distinct news voices in the UK market. The UK Competition and Markets Authority will decide on the merger's fate by August 7.
