(Telecompaper) The European Commission has approved Disney's planned takeover of 21st Century Fox with the condition that the companies divest several factual channels. These are the channels History, H2, Crime & Investigation, Blaze and Lifetime, which are controlled by A+E Television Networks, a joint venture between Disney and Hearst. The Commission said the concession would resolve its concerns about reduced competition on the market for wholesale supply of TV channels following the merger.
