Part 5/9:
According to reports from Andrew Marshian of The Athletic, Google and Disney are currently engaged in negotiations, seeking a resolution before a critical deadline—probably before the upcoming NFL Monday Night Football games featuring the Green Bay Packers versus the Philadelphia Eagles. The goal appears to be to reach an agreement before the Monday night game, as a deal delay would lead to even more social media backlash and customer outrage.
It’s understood that if the two parties truly worked toward a resolution, they could quickly close the deal—possibly with the assistance of a mediator. However, the negotiations seem to have stalled or become complicated, leaving viewers in limbo.
