Eh, you do understand that Sony has assets worth over 15 trillion yen! It's also a conglomerate. As Eddard Stark once said "one does not simply buy a multinational conglomerate."

companies buy companies much bigger than sony all the time, unfortunately for sony most of those assets are offset by debt so the actual value of the company is no where near the value of the assets. If nothing else there massive debt is what actually protects sony as no one wants to take on such huge liabilities. Regardless it is a silly rumour as Disney would not be interested in the electronics business combined with all the problems of acquiring a japanese iconic business.
