remind you. 21st century fox is a force in entertainment — its studios controls everything from the simpsonsmen and deadpool. it owns networks star tv and has stakes in sky, endemol shine and streaming firm hulu. last week, comcast launched a $65 billion cash bid for fox's assets — a bid 19% higher than a rival offerfrom disney. but disney, home to pixar, star wars and marvel, has already agreed to buy fox's assets for $52.4 billion in stock. it's thought disney may now boost its bid with cash. consumers are shunning traditional cable operators for streaming services such as netflix, amazon and hulu, so offering movies, tv and content on tap is key. disney aims to launch its own streaming service in 2019, one that's cheaper than netflix. so the pressure is on to make or buy original content. netflix plans to spend some $8 billion in 2018 on programming, including 700 original tv shows and movies. with me is greg swenson, partner, brigg macadam limited. good to see you again. the board meeting today, what will be discussed? is the first stage today. just considering whether to consider the bi

after the break we are back with brooks simpson of arizona state university who will talk about president abraham lincoln and his relationship with two of his commanding generals. for the next -- for the next 10 minutes, our c-span cities tour takes you on the road to feature the history of an american city. >> i am standing and perhaps one of the most famous courthouses in the united states where really nothing of significance happened, appomattox courthouse. the name is confusing. courthouse is one building behind me and is situated at appomattox courthouse, which is a village. appomattox court house, the village is important because it is where the general surrendered to ulysses, bringing about an end, the end of the civil war. this town has a lot of history for its size. today we would like to talk a little bit about why appomattox courthouse is so famous. we would like to spend time about untold stories. the courthouse is a village complete with a tavern, stores, lawyers offices and homes. it was not more than 130, 140 people in 1865. it is an unlikely place for the two large militar

crucially you do not get fox news and some of this box sports channels, but you do get shows like the simpsons studios that produced films like x—men, you get sky tv of cause and a significant stake in the streaming service, hulu. will comcast come up with a counter offer? i do want to say that when it comes to 21st century fox, it does have a preferred suitor, they would prefer that disney does by the company. that is because they are concerned that if comcast does have a successful bid, it could face scrutiny from us regulators, who again are wary of these media mergers that are happening in the united states. 21st century fox, which is led of course by rupert murdoch, would be more —— believes that the regulators would be more inclined to approve the sale to disney than the comcast. instagram is sharing a new feature that allows users to upgrade video is longer than a users to upgrade video is longer thana minute, users to upgrade video is longer than a minute, this comes after rival snapchat unveiled a rival feature aimed at keeping users on the sight longer. dave lee explains. this is ins

emily: just who will win the --e to bart simpson, fx nor the rights to buy simpson and fx? let's go to gerry smith. and amy. what is the next move? i do think that fox obviously has to take a good look at this. i think comcast makes a point in saying they don't want to be rejected, since they are offering a pretty healthy premium here. it is an all cash deal. they are making a lot of different concessions, even offering a regulatory breakup fee. i do think they don't want to be rejected, and i do think fox does have to look at the all caps premium deal. a month ago, disney ceo bob iger was on bloomberg television and asked about the potential of a comcast bid. he said he thinks disney has a better shot of passing regulatory approval. then he said this. >> i think if you look at that versus another offer, whatever that is, in terms of money or the source, you have to hold that up against our offer, not just on value, but against the real possibility of it happening. we believe we are offering shareholders in both companies and outstandingly positive or attractive proposition
