21CF special meet on Disney merger issue on July 10
NEW DELHI: Is the Disney-21st Century Fox merger a done deal? The twists and turns in real life probably match a Hollywood corporate thriller produced by the media company. Second suiter Comcast hasn’t yet given up even as the Rupert Murdoch family-promoted company said on Wednesday that on 10 July 2018 a special meeting has been scheduled for vote on the merger agreement with The Walt Disney Company.

Update...- Fox-Disney merger cleared, but sports networks must be sold
US regulators have cleared Walt Disney Co's plan to buy most of 21st Century Fox, removing a final barrier to the $71.3bn (£54.2bn) deal.

The approval requires the sale of Fox's regional sports networks in the US, due to competition concerns, the Justice Department's antitrust division said.

Disney, which had signalled willingness to sell the sports networks, said it was "pleased" with the decision.

The deal still needs approval in other countries to go forward.

Disney has a clear edge over rival Comcast
A new report from Deadline indicates that, with a little over three weeks left until Fox's shareholders will vote on Disney's massive $71.3 billion cash and stock offer for Fox's assets, Disney's offer is not only more lucrative overall but also has tax advantages the Comcast offer simply doesn't have. This, along with pledged support of the Disney offer by the Murdoch family, is enough to make Disney the likely victor.
