disney hopes it will offset concerns over the media unit.own the record double-digit rally we have seen in industrials. we will get a better idea of their prospects after tuesday's closing bell. emily: that was scarlet fu. tune in tuesday. bob iger will be joining us talking with david. netflix has made it very first acquisition. the streaming video company announced it snapped up the comic book publisher behind characters and comic books like old man logan. becomeedia companies wary of providing content to streaming services as netflix looms as a threat. lucas shaw, of all the acquisitions, why miller world as their first? >> a big heart of it coming off the disney segment is because disney and time warner already have pipelines of comic book material they can use. right now, all the tv shows and movies netflix offers were most of them are from disney. licensesmovies netflix after they appear in theaters. own pipeline its of original comic book material it can develop, own, exploit down the road if it wants to make t-shirts or a theme park

counting on big hits to offset concerns about the media unit. wonder if that is a sustainable strategy. it is notoriously hits dependent. one year you could have a great sleep in the next year it could fall apart. >> that's true across the industry as a whole. disney's results for many years now that is not been the case. we like their particular strategy to focus on a very bigentrated slate of franchise type hits. focusing on their animation, brands with marvel, pixar. star wars. titles they put out each year have done very well and they will have a flop here and there. for the most part the results have been very steady. than anyike it more so company in this group we can rely on the studio results to be pretty good. julia: you have mentioned subscriber declines. that to some degree. to what extent will those declines be offset by the launches of various multichannel video programming distributors that kerry espn. the likes of dish, sling tv, direct tv. what kind of offset are we looking at? >> we think there will be some kind of positive offs

media unit encompasses a lot of things -- studios, cable networks, and espn. very dependent on espn. paul: espn is still the largest profit generator for the walt disney company. it has been a great growth story over the last 20 plus years. starting two years ago this month is when the first time that disney reported that espn's growth rate was slowing. investors really started to see the impacts of cord cutting and what the effect is having across all cable networks, including the mighty espn. expectations for growth have been coming down consistently since then. vonnie: there have been reports that disney has considered a twitter bid and a potential interest in netflix coul. this also the streaming unit. these are all grains of sand. espn is more than just a couple. paul: on the digital front, investors are waiting for disney to articulate an aggressive strategy to promote its products on digital platforms and their focusing on espn. is there a direct to consumer apple or platform that disney should be bringing out to the marketplace to offset some of the su

disney hopes that its movies and theme parks offsets any weakness in its media units.t 9 million subscribers, even when factoring in tv over internet services. here with more analysis is paul sweeney -- paul sweeney. does disney still have to be worried about espn? paul: they still have to be worried. that continues to be a big issue for investors. that is because espn has historically been the dominant profit generator. a great growth story, but those days appear to be over. courtis concern that the cutting issue which is affecting all of pay television is having a negative impact on the espn because it is the most profitable cable network. about seven dollars per subscriber, perm month -- per month. it has the most to lose at a time when it's business model on the cost side is saddled with some long-term high price for its contract -- high price sports contracts. galaxy --dian guardians of the galaxy has been sort of a money producing machine. caribbean made money, but probably not as much as disney hoped. the other star wars and the other for film. -- the other thor

media what's your take. well. the biggest rulings of the united states supreme court such as new york time versus sullivan or the girths case these are supreme court decisions that actually gave protection to the media and the protection they afforded was to say that you can make false statements but if it's a private or a public person that you make these statements about you are not liable for these false statements unless the statements were uttered with what is known as actual malice and that can be defined as the. reckless disregard for the truth or the intentional indifference to the truth and absent actual malice so long again as the victim of the false statement is a public figure they are protected now that's different if it's a private person if it's a private person and you show something less than reckless disregard for the truth and just simply show that they were careless in their reporting and that the statement was false then there is liability under the law of defamation be it libel the written word or slander the spoken word but these early supreme court cases actually did protect the media they have

we hear a lot about how the media networks unit is big he is not regret that represents the biggest slice 40%. the runner-up is disney's theme parks followed by the movie studios and that consumer products. disney's espn is under massive scrutiny due to subscriber losses. in the past three years, espn has lost 9 million subscribers even with factoring in tv over internet. when you look at the month of june, yes, streaming content is helping slow some losses, but espn lost subscribers in that month. ceo bob iger said the pessimism surrounding espn was highly exaggerated. some of that is reflected in disney's stock which has fallen due to renewed industry concerns on fewer viewers in ad revenue. the cable ratings fell 18% in the month of june. there are reports that tv networks are racing for a drop in at revenue for football games in the upcoming season. perfect timing that disney's theme parks are doing better. a big driver for that unit is the shanghai disneyland resort. even though it is more than a year old, that is the fourth most popular park across asia. ey taking a couple of number

any attack that is directed against civilians or civilian infrastructure at first it was a media room of the united states led coalition had me state again bombing a house packed with civilians in raca leaving dozens and dozens of innocents dead and many more buried under the rubble one thing to know more travel to a hospital in iraq and you know if witness and survivor testimony is anything to go by these things happen regularly is that the finish second was we were directly targeted by the coalition it was very clear that they would new insurgents in the area. locations that have capacity to absorb them every once in so everyone's sorry regretful when civilians die but nothing changes it's the same exact scenario playing out over and over again civilians made to bear the brunt of liberation to pay its cost with their lives all for nicholas davis who's written about the invasion of iraq believes the us doesn't take responsibility for civilian casualties they are not taking responsibility for the truth scale of civilian casualties in two thousand and seven the un said very clearly the bombing of. c

we haven't seen enough coverage from media in the united states.anitarian organizations on the ground. some of them catholic charities attempting to help people. ultimately the solution will have to come within a structural change within the venezuelan government, limit the government's power and denationalize industries like farms taken over by the socialist government. cheryl: well you know, that is the thing though, you have got opposition leaders, two which were taken away in the middle of the night in their pajamas after this election, which is being called a sham worldwide. at least by the western world at least. what can be done by the opposition? do they have power left? protests don't have success. maduro is hanging on to power. you have to wonder why when we see all the unrest on our television screens? >> to be clear, there is pressure from outside of venezuela. the united states put in personal sanctions against 13 leaders inside of venezuela, socialist side leaders. revoking their visas. there are personal sanctions against maduro. any

going to say that some other way in a crowd there is a violent labor when liberal media calls the president of the united states a traitor ok that is going way too far ok without any evidence michael j. to call barack obama a traitor just before i go right before we go to a bomb a traitor yes or no did they call him a socialist trying to destroy our system go ahead by called last twenty seconds we're going to go. i think we have had such a terrible problem conflating the media with the democratic party i know it's only because the media declared itself so but. i don't have the right leadership here to say and they sound the same but they really need to be viewed differently and i think that's to david's point is that it's not the democrats doing this it's the media aren't generally the tool let me jump in here who all of the don't really have to go to a hard break and after that short break we'll continue our discussion why democrats keep losing elections state with thirty. greenspan doesn't really seem to understand that the point of having a central bank is to try to mitigate the risks of these are the
