PARIS: Bob Iger, the chief executive of Walt Disney, declined to make any comment to reporters on Tuesday regarding Comcast’s $31 billion bid for Sky. Iger was in Paris on a business trip and was meeting French President Emmanuel Macron. Comcast is challenging Rupert Murdoch’s Fox and Iger’s Walt Disney for Sky, seen as a European pay-TV jewel.
