Comcast-owned Sky said it had agreed to buy ITV in a deal bringing together two of the United Kingdom's best-know meida and entertainment businesses.

Sky’s $2.1 billion ITV deal could reshape British advertising, combining premium TV, streaming and first-party data to create a powerful new platform for brands.
