Should Disney buys Verizon?

[Oscar Preciado]

Ever since Comcast owns NBCUniversal and AT&T plans to buy TimeWarner.

Verizon now owns AOL (which was now spinoff from TimeWarner) and plans to buy Yahoo!, and rumor about Verizon buying Charter Communications.

I was thinking of Disney buying Verizon, just to expand the company to cable business and bring contents to AOL, like ESPN Live, ABC stream, Disney Zone, etc. Why didn't Bob Iger buy AOL in the first place, it could make Disney expand their Internet business. Just like TimeWarner did, before the reorganization in 2009.

Personally I don't think Disney needs to buy anything at the moment.

I don't think Disney CAN buy Verizon...I believe Verizon is a bigger company...just as Comcast is/was

I'm really not seeing any advantage to Disney buying Verizon. I doubt they want to get into the cell phone business and they have plenty of outlets for their media/IP interests. AOL has been dead for some time now, no real advantage there.

Let's see. Disney in charge of a tech company.

What could possibly go wrong?
