Disney bought Fox corporation.

No, it bought 21st Century Fox.

Disney’s effect on Fox News exists only between your ears.

I stand corrected. Another article I read was wrapped around the idea that Disney bought it all, even it was like 3 layers of down.

But, you made your point.

Thanks for setting me straight.

You’re welcome. Care to guess at what point in our exchange I took a minute on the Google to make sure I was right?

The idea of figuring out why you are right hurts my brain. You can just tell me.

It was a link off my stock trader news feed. Obviously I misread it. I wouldn't be able to find it again. If you need to rub it in, I can handle it.

Nope. I was just curious.

If the reporter would like to shoot some bad guys, I may have my Mattel Fanner 50 somewhere in the basement. Maybe I can become the arms dealer for Fox News:
