BenBenBen writes "Comcast have made a surprise $66 billion bid for Disney. The public bid (aimed at swaying shareholders) follows a period of secret negotiation which resulted in Eisner saying no. Comcast has a statement on their website and there is better coverage available here."

    Comcast is beyond a doubt one of the worst companies going. If it was not for the monopoly that they get, then they would be gone.

    Worse, they are simply on a buying spree to go after companies that they think will make them profitable. This is .com II being carried into media. I wonder how well connected the roberts are.
