I wonder if an antitrust suit will be filed, this seems like a pretty significant acquisition.

With the current administration, anything can be legal.

Besides, they still have plans to spin off the cable networks, so this would mostly concern the streaming assets, movie studio, and the IP.

The merger needs to be accepted by other markets, too. No offense but I find it quite amusing how Americans keep forgetting about that.
