Disney plans to buy 21st Century Fox for $52 billion. The deal would give Disney access to a giant pool of content, just in time for the "Magic Kingdom" to take on Netflix and Amazon in the streaming industry.
Rob Marvin, Associate Features Editor at PCMag, explains what the Disney-21st Century Fox deal could mean for the digital media landscape. He says Netflix is too big to fail, but this deal would give Disney a major advantage in the streaming space.
