The Disney/Fox merger may not be a closed deal just yet.
A collection of top Democrats in the U.S. Congress want to hold hearings on Disney’s $52 billion bid to buy 21st Century Fox.
Key voices on competition and consumer protection fear Disney’s latest deal will only solidify its dominance in entertainment — granting it too many major box-office franchises and too much power over regional sports networks and streaming video services.Source:“Another day, another mega-merger,” said Rep. David Cicilline in a statement last week. “Disney’s proposed purchase of 21st Century Fox threatens to put control of TV, movie, and news content into the hands of a single media giant.”
