While there are many aspects to Disney’s acquisition of 21st Century Fox’s assets, I am personally incredibly happy about it, for obvious reason.

Welcome home, old friends. 😭 https://t.co/MpQHEnOTVL

Here’s why I am happy about it— the studio will no longer be owned by the Murdoch’s who are toxic to our country and government because they are part of a propaganda arm which has no interest in anything but making them richer. Hopefully, overall, less movies won’t be made. https://t.co/58oeBuUmQS

I love how Disney said to Fox, "We'll take ALL of it… Except for Fox News that's some dog shit right there."
