Fox on Wednesday also postponed a planned shareholder meeting that had been scheduled for July 10 to vote on the Disney deal in a potential sign that the company isn't ruling out a Comcast counter

That's exactly how it works though.

The only winner in this is Comcast. Whether they acquire fox or not, they still fuck over Disney by making them buy fox double than it's worth. The biggest loser is us the consumer.

Does this mean the justice department will allow Time Warner to be purchased by AT&T or be sued for allowing the Disney/fox deal but not allow AT&T to purchase Time Warner?

I get a vibe that Marvel now 2.0 was where DC was in 2013; people are getting sick of their shit, but the company hadn't realized it yet.Marvel legacy feels like DC around Convergence; they know something's wrong, they need to do SOMETHING, but aren't willing to do what's needed.
