One of the most SJW-converged corporations on the
planet just extended its tentacles even further:
Disney
on Thursday announced a deal to acquire many parts of Twenty-First Century Fox
for $52.4 billion in stock. The company will get Fox's movie studios, network
Nat Geo, Asian pay-TV operator Star TV, stakes in Sky and Hulu and regional
sports networks. The acquisition bolsters Disney's plans to become a dominant
streaming service platform, making it a bigger threat to Netflix.
"The more desirable content they have, the better they will be able to compete in terms of trying to sell a subscription offering at a time there's so much competition for subscription-based services," said eMarketer senior analyst Paul Verna.
Bob Iger will remain Disney's chairman and CEO through the end of 2021, at the request of the board of directors of both companies. Disney emphasized the importance of Iger to integrate the acquisition, saying in a statement that "extending his tenure is in the best interests of our company and our shareholders."

On the plus side, there isn't
much at Fox to ruin. On the downside, this acquisition puts the SJWs in an even
stronger position in the cultural war.
