Comcast says it is prepping superior bid for 21st Century Fox assets than Disney's

Comcast Corp. on Wednesday confirmed that it is considering a move to thwart the $52.4 billion deal struck between 21st Century Fox Inc. and The Walt Disney Co. , by swooping in with a bigger offer of its own. The owner of NBC Universal said it is in advanced stages of preparing a superior bid. "Any offer for Fox would be all-cash and at a premium to the value of the current all-share offer from Disney," the company said in a statement. "The structure and terms of any offer by Comcast, including with respect to both the spin-off of "New Fox" and the regulatory risk provisions and the related termination fee, would be at least as favorable to Fox shareholders as the Disney offer." Disney has agreed to buy Fox assets, including its film and TV studios and international pay-TV properties, but excluding the Fox News channel, Fox Business Network, Fox Broadcasting Company and certain other assets. Comcast shares fell 1.6% premarket on the news, while Fox rose 0.3% and Disney slid 0.6%. S&P 500 futures were down 0.7%.

Senate votes to overturn FCC's net neutrality repeal

The Senate on Wednesday voted to overturn the Federal Communications Commission's rollback of Obama-era "net neutrality" regulations. Democrats and Republican Sens. Susan Collins, John Kennedy and Lisa Murkowski backed the move to undo the FCC's December 2017 decision, but the measure faces little chance of passing in the House. It would also require President Donald Trump's signature. In December, FCC Chairman Ajit Pai said the rules, which were designed to prevent internet service providers from favoring certain sites, were "heavy handed."

NBCUniversal found 4 allegations of Matt Lauer's sexual misconduct to be 'credible'

NBC News is reporting Wednesday that NBCUniversal's investigation into allegations of sexual misconduct by former "Today" show anchor Matt Lauer found that four complaints were "credible." The five-month long investigation by NBCUniversal, which is owned by Comcast Corp. , also found no evidence that NBC News or "Today" show leadership were aware of any complaints about Lauer's behavior before Nov. 27, 2017. However, the report said several people at NBC News were aware that Lauer would openly engage in sexually oriented banter in the workplace. The investigators said they don't believe there is a widespread pattern of behavior that violates policy or a culture of harassment in the news division. In response, NBC News Chairman Andrew Lack issued a memo announcing new ways to report workplace misconduct. Comcast's stock slipped 0.3% in midday trade. It has tumbled 23.8% year to date, while the S&P 500 has edged up 0.2%.
