I guess Rupert Murdoch and Bob Iger must be ignorant of some of the history with Fox News namesake and film producer William Fox. Let's not forget when Mr. Fox tried buying Loew's Theatres in 1929, that was part of media downfall. If the Brazilian government branch that deals with antitrust cases is smart, they would say "No way! Disney owns too much! We have unanimously agreed that your purchase cannot be done at least here".
Correct if I am wrong, but if even if Brazil says "yes", would the entire planned buy-out be canceled if a minor foreign regulator (country where Disney and Fox have smaller markets) says "no"?
I know it is foolish hope, but please give me something that could cancel the entire deal. Possible things that could stop the marriage from going through could be that it was revealed that Disney did some bribery with the USDOJ and those foreign regulators. Perhaps there is some monopoly statute in the Constitution the USDOJ overlooked that Disney violated.
