...With its potential acquisition of 21st Century Fox, Disney would effectively be destroying one of the six major Hollywood film studios, something that’s sure to draw the attention of antitrust regulators. Questions are also being raised about what it would mean for Disney to take on all of Fox’s other 21st Century assets, like its stake in Hulu and the 61% of Sky UK that it didn’t already own. Previous to this deal’s announcement, Fox was already in the process of having its own $15 billion proposal to take full control over the UK telecommunications giant reviewed by British regulators who were concerned about the company being entirely controlled by the Murdoch media empire. - Charles Pulliam-Moore, Gizmodo [via/web:http://streaming-tv.us]
