Returning Disney boss Bob Iger says any rumors about an Apple deal are 'pure speculation'

—before Iger made his statement—that people have been saying it for years and that the only ones who ever seem to believe it are supposed tech insiders who refuse to accept that Apple buying Disney would be a hugely expensive risk for everyone involved.

Basically, Disney has had some rough years, but that’s mostly because of COVID and it will probably bounce back , whereas Apple isbig acquisitions unless it’s specifically buying up some technology to improve Siri or Apple Music.So Disney doesn’t want to be sold , and Apple probably doesn’t want to buy Disney, so… that seems to be that.

No way it would pass antitrust laws or something

Isn't that what they say just before they sell?
