We have to remember that it was Fox that was looking to sell . People seem to be under the impression that Disney twisted their arm in a hostile takeover type maneuver. The other major candidate that was interested in purchasing was Comcast(Universal), which would have been the exact same scenario.
This the combined market share of Disney/Fox/Fox Searchlight and Comcast/Fox/Fox Searchlight from the last 5 years -
| Disney/Fox/Fox SL | Comcast/Fox/Fox SL | |
| 2017 | 31.4% | 27.7% |
| 2016 | 39.7% | 25.8% |
| 2015 | 32.1% | 33.6% |
| 2014 | 32.8% | 26.8% |
| 2013 | 25.1% | 22.6% |
Doesn't seem like quite the monopoly that people are making it out to be. There's still a lot of competition to go around before they get to that stage.
