Careful with all encompassing comments, your view does not translate to "everyone" as you have been told before.
No one "hates" Comcast except you and others that have a personal beef with the company. You seem mired in the hate and make a statement to this fact at every opportunity to make it. No matter what you personally feel it is not the opinion of "everyone"

Not true, I am part of "everyone" and I don't hate them
Not worth my time to do that, I have better things to be concerned with.

I don’t like them either (some of the VPs are in my town)...but trying to push the “everyone hates them” as somehow making Disney look good - the completely non-nuanced goal here - is completely sophomore year.
Definitely a well earned bad reputation...but Comcast is no longer just crappy cable...they do very popular other things too. It’s been in the news.
Yep.
Lemme go all Godwin on ya: I'm sure some of Hitler's art was nice.

Well, all the other countries quietly approved the deal during the past 6 months. And maybe, just maybe, Disney might announce Brazil is the only country left yet to tick off their list at the Earnings Call in 4 days.
Typically the general public will only hear about approval from the major regions like the U.S, China and EU. Once Disney got China approval it basically confirmed the deal was happening. Brazil is a minor bump in the road for Disney. Nothing more. The general public doesn't need to know about The other approvals so Disney will keep it out of the press.

Among all of the countries China was the biggest because everyone thought China would block the merger because of Trump, and the trade war.

This new SEC filing has Disney's plans for Fox mapped out in the wake of the deal, including its final finalisation. Many people believe it'll be completed by June, but the filings say "Disney Expects the deal will close before June 2019." Which means it'll be finalised by February or March.
I've started checking the Twitter of COFECE, the Mexican regulator, to see if anything has gone on there. If anything goes public and I see it I'll post on here. The Android app has a translate feature too so it will be in English.

And CADE has already said that it's just speculation so far.
