If the AT&T-Time Warner deal goes through Fox will be a lot more likely to take the Comcast deal.

I was rooting for Comcast. Not sure I like ESPN and Fox Sports together. Although there is a potential of one good thing — sports rights TV fees may drop.

I believe its just the regional channels that they are selling, but I could be misremembering.

That was a different deal that already took place I believe.

In addition to 21st Century Fox's movie studio and regional sports networks, Disney is buying cable channels FX and National Geographic. Disney will also get Fox's stakes in Hulu and European pay-TV provider Sky (SKYAY).

Prior to the deal closing, 21st Century Fox (FOX)will separate the Fox broadcasting network, Fox News Channel, Fox Business Network, and some national sports networks into a new company that will be spun off to its shareholders. The remaining properties would ideally in the coming years merge with News Corp., from which they split in 2013, Murdoch said on Fox Business Thursday morning.

I still think Comcast may end up with the Fox regional sports networks. Or you could see a surprise - instead of another content provider picking the regional sports networks up it could potentially be Charter. That may fix their issue with the Dodgers and Lakers.
