The EU authority said it set a new deadline of July 22 to decide whether to clear the deal or open an in-depth probe.\nThe offer by Paramount is expected to garner the approval of EU competition regulators, people familiar with the matter said last week.\nParamount said in a statement that it's \"confident that this remedy directly and comprehensively addresses any concerns expressed in the European Commission's preliminary assessment\" and will \"support the path for timely clearance\".\nThe proposed antitrust fix comes after Competition Commissioner Teresa Ribera flagged concerns to Bloomberg TV over the power Paramount may garner in film distribution in Europe. She highlighted in particular that she wanted to make sure there are \"alternatives that producers and filmmakers can find\" to get their content into movie theatres and homes in the 27-nation bloc.\nScrutiny from the EU's antitrust arm is one of the last obstacles Paramount's David Ellison must overcome after outmanoeuvring rival suitor Netflix Inc with multiple bids over more than five months, visits to Washington, meetings with shareholders and President Donald Trump and the personal backing of his billionaire father Larry Ellison.\nHowever other potential hurdles still remain in the US and the UK, where the government raised concerns over the deal's potential threat to diversity of media ownership.\nLisa Nandy, UK secretary of state for culture, media and sport, on Tuesday wrote a letter to Warner Bros and said to parliament that she's \"minded to intervene\" on public interest grounds. If she does decide to step in, the country's media regulator and antitrust watchdog will report to her about the deal's impact on competition.\nUploaded by Arion Yeow","kind":"highlight","is_publish_news":true,"is_publish_highlight":false,"is_publish_live":false,"is_publish_wemedia":false,"editions":null,"column":"","sentiment":"1","news_tag":"policyRegulatory","news_rank":0,"isVideo":false,"video":null,"symbols":[],"gpt_button":0,"need_auth":false,"need_login_tip":false,"code":"91000000","status":"200"},"commentList":[],"isCommentEnd":true,"newsSizeData":{"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"favoriteSize":0,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false},"APP":{"userAgent":"Mozilla/5.0 AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko; compatible; ClaudeBot/1.0; +claudebot@anthropic.com)","isDev":false,"isTTM":true,"isLaohu8Offline":false,"tenantId":"TBGLOBAL","deviceId":"web-server-community-laohu8-v3","version":"4.44.1","shortVersion":"4.44.1","platform":"web","vendor":"web","appName":"ttm","isIOS":false,"isAndroid":false,"isTiger":false,"isTHS":false,"isWeiXin":false,"isWeiXinMini":false,"isWeiBo":false,"isQQ":false,"isBaiduSwan":false,"isBaiduBox":false,"isDingTalk":false,"isToutiao":false,"isOnePlus":false,"isHuaWei":false,"isXiaomi":false,"isXiaomiWebView":false,"isOppo":false,"isVivo":false,"isSamsung":false,"isMobile":false},"href":"/m/news/2648529876","isCrawlerRequest":true}
