On November 16, 2017, it was reported that Comcast attempted to purchase [[21st Century Fox]], following the news 10 days earlier that The Walt Disney Company negotiated with Fox to acquire the same assets. Like Disney, the deal included the 20th Century Fox film and television studios, cable entertainment and broadcast satellite networks including [[FX (TV channel)|FX Networks]], [[National Geographic Partners]], [[Fox Sports Networks]], and international channels such as [[Star India]]. It would not include the [[Fox Broadcasting Company]], [[Fox Television Stations]], [[Fox Sports (United States)|Fox Sports]], and [[Fox News]] units, all which will be spun-off into a new independent company,<ref>{{Cite news|url=https://deadline.com/2017/11/comcast-21st-century-fox-acquisition-talks-report-1202210244/|title=Comcast-Fox Deal Talks Latest Entry Into Media Merger Mania|last1=C.

However, on December 11, 2017, Comcast officially dropped the bid, saying that "We never got the level of engagement needed to make a definitive offer."<ref>{{Cite news|url=https://www.reuters.com/article/us-fox-m-a-comcast-exclusive/comcast-drops-bid-for-fox-assets-leaving-disney-in-pole-position-idUSKBN1E52OM|title=Comcast drops bid for Fox assets, leaving Disney in pole position |last=Reuter Staff|first=Reuter Staff|date=2017-12-11|work=Reuters |access-date=2017-12-11}}</ref> On December 14, Disney officially confirmed its acquisition of 21st Century Fox for $52.4 billion in stock, pending review from the United States Department of Justice Antitrust Division.<ref>{{Cite news|url=https://money.cnn.com/2017/12/14/media/disney-fox-deal/index.html|title=Disney is buying most of 21st Century Fox for $52.4 billion|last=Riley|first=Charles and Hadas Gold|work=[[CNN Business|CNNMoney]]|access-date=2017-12-14}}</ref>
 
On February 5, 2018, a new report by CNBC claims that despite the Disney/Fox deal, Comcast was considering topping Disney's $52.4 billion offer once the [[AT&T]]–[[Time Warner]] merger goes through, after the Department of Justice Antitrust Division sued to block the merger on November 20, 2017.
 
On May 7, 2018, Comcast announced a potential bid against Disney's effort to acquire Fox after it spoke to investment banks about making a $60 billion cash offer, pending on approval of the AT&T–Time Warner merger.<ref>{{Cite news|url=https://www.cbsnews.com/news/4-reasons-comcast-covets-fox/|title=4 reasons Comcast covets Fox|last=Gibson|first=Kate|work=CBS|date=May 7, 2018}}</ref> On May 15, several Fox investors expressed interests in inking a deal with Comcast due to their all-cash offer as opposed to Disney's $52.4 billion stock offer.<ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.cnbc.com/2018/05/15/comcasts-all-cash-bid-could-pit-murdoch-against-fox-shareholders.html|title=Comcast's all-cash bid could pit Murdoch against Fox shareholders|work=CNBC|date=May 15, 2018|access-date=May 15, 2018}}</ref> On June 13, Comcast officially announced a $65 billion counter-offer to acquire the 21st Century Fox's assets that Disney offered to purchase.<ref>{{Cite news|url=https://www.theverge.com/2018/6/13/17457244/comcast-21st-century-fox-film-tv-studios-acquisition-deal-announced|title=Comcast makes $65 billion offer to steal 21st Century Fox away from Disney|work=The Verge|access-date=2018-06-13}}</ref>
 
However, on June 20, 2018, Disney and Fox announced that they had amended their previous merger agreement, upping Disney's offer to $71.3 billion (a 10% premium over Comcast's $65 billion offer), while also offering shareholders the option of receiving cash instead of stock.<ref name="Bloomberg">{{cite web|url=https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2018-06-20/fox-agrees-to-sweetened-bid-from-disney-dealing-blow-to-comcast|title=Disney Sweetens Offer for Fox to $71 Billion, Outbidding Comcast|website=Bloomberg|last=Turner|first=Nick|date=June 20, 2018|access-date=June 20, 2018}}</ref> On June 27, the [[United States Department of Justice]] gave antitrust approval to Disney under the condition of selling Fox's 22 regional sports channels, to which the company has agreed.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.cnbc.com/2018/06/27/us-set-to-give-antitrust-approval-for-disney-fox-deal.html|title=Disney wins US antitrust approval to buy Fox assets|work=CNBC|date=June 27, 2018|access-date=June 28, 2018}}</ref> On the next day, Disney and Fox shareholders scheduled July 27, 2018 as the day to vote on Fox's properties being sold to Disney, giving Comcast enough time to make a higher counter-offer for the Fox assets.<ref name="Vote-07-27-Variety">{{cite web|url=https://variety.com/2018/biz/news/disney-fox-shareholder-voting-date-1202861184/|title=Disney, Fox Set Shareholder Voting Date for $71 Billion Deal|last=Littleton|first=Cynthia|work=[[Variety (magazine)|Variety]]|date=June 28, 2018|access-date=June 28, 2018}}</ref><ref name="Vote-07-27-LATimes">{{cite web|url=https://www.latimes.com/business/hollywood/la-fi-ct-disney-fox-shareholders-vote-20180628-story.html|title=Disney and Fox schedule July 27 shareholder votes on merger — upping pressure on Comcast|last=James|first=Meg|work=Los Angeles Times|date=June 28, 2018|access-date=June 28, 2018}}</ref>
 
However, on July 12, 2018, the Department of Justice filed a notice of appeal with the D.C. Circuit to reverse the District Court's approval for AT&T acquisition of Time Warner (now renamed WarnerMedia). Although analysts say that the chances of the DOJ win are small, they say it is the "final nail in the coffin for Comcast's Fox chase.

====Acquisition of Sky plc====
On February 27, 2018, Comcast offered to purchase 61% stake in Sky plc at a value of £12.50 per-share, approximately £22.1 billion. 21st Century Fox, which owns 39% stake in Sky, had previously declined a US$60 billion acquisition offer by Comcast in favor of its deal with Disney, due to anti-competition concerns.<ref>{{Cite news|url=https://www.bbc.com/news/business-43209100|title=Murdoch bid for Sky challenged by US giant|date=27 February 2018|work=BBC News|access-date=27 February 2018}}</ref><ref>{{Cite news|url=https://deadline.com/2018/02/comcast-mulls-renewed-21st-century-fox-pursuit-1202285921/|title=Comcast Mulls Renewing Its 21st Century Fox Assets Pursuit – Report|last=Haring|first=Bruce|date=12 February 2018|work=Deadline Hollywood|access-date=24 February 2018}}</ref><ref>{{Cite news|url=https://variety.com/2018/biz/news/comcast-fox-bid-disney-merger-1202694858/|title=Comcast May Make Another Bid for 21st Century Fox (Report)|date=12 February 2018|work=Variety|access-date=24 February 2018}}</ref> NBCUniversal CEO [[Steve Burke (businessman)|Steve Burke]] stated that purchasing Sky would roughly double its presence in English-speaking markets, and allow for synergies between the respective networks and studios of NBCUniversal and Sky.

On April 12, the [[Panel on Takeovers and Mergers]] ruled that Disney had to acquire all of Sky within 28 days of fully acquiring Fox if the latter's acquisition of Sky was not completed by the time the merger was done, or if Comcast's counter-offer wasn't accepted.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://deadline.com/2018/04/disney-will-be-forced-to-acquire-all-of-sky-if-foxs-takeover-of-uk-pay-net-is-not-complete-before-mega-deal-1202362838|title=Disney Will Be Forced To Acquire All Of Sky If Fox's Takeover Of UK Pay Net Is Not Complete Before Mega-Deal|last=White|first=Peter|website=Deadline Hollywood|date=April 12, 2018|access-date=April 25, 2018}}</ref> On April 25, 2018, Comcast made its formal counter-bid for Sky plc, offering £12.50 per-share; Sky subsequently withdrew its recommendation of the Fox bid.<ref>{{Cite news|url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-43891132|title=Comcast starts £22bn bidding war for Sky|last=Wilson|first=Bill|date=25 April 2018|work=BBC News|access-date=25 April 2018|language=en-GB}}</ref> On June 5, 2018, [[Secretary of State for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport|Culture Secretary]] [[Matt Hancock]] cleared both 21st Century Fox and Comcast's respective offers to acquire Sky plc.

On June 15, 2018, the European Commission gave antitrust clearance to Comcast's offer to purchase Sky, citing that in terms of their current assets in Europe, there would be limited impact on competition.
