Trump called Murdoch to make sure Disney deal wouldn't affect Fox News
President Trump reportedly called 21st Century Fox executive chairman Rupert Murdoch ahead of Disney's announcement that it would purchase of much of his company to make sure the deal wouldn't impact Fox News.
According to a New York Times report published Saturday, Trump made the call before news of the sale emerged earlier this month.
The president frequently watches Fox News and often tweets about the network's coverage of his administration.
Murdoch reportedly assured Trump that the network would not be impacted by the sale.
