Actually can't see how.
Netflix owns no broadcast channels or RSN'S and has plenty of competition. They have no theme parks.

If they bought Netflix they'd have to divest some items for sure. But Netflix had a lot of content already pulled so it's actually a pretty seamless transition.

Not gonna lie, I have no clue what this means for Disney and I doubt it'll make any difference unless they hire better writers.

Dear DMED Employees,
As we embark on the transformative work that I mentioned to you in my email last night, I want to begin by offering my sincere appreciation and gratitude to each and every one of you.
Over the coming weeks, we will begin implementing organizational and operating changes within the company. It is my intention to restructure things in a way that honors and respects creativity as the heart and soul of who we are. As you know, this is a time of enormous change and challenges in our industry, and our work will also focus on creating a more efficient and cost-effective structure.
I’ve asked Dana Walden, Alan Bergman, Jimmy Pitaro, and Christine McCarthy to work together on the design of a new structure that puts more decision-making back in the hands of our creative teams and rationalizes costs, and this will necessitate a reorganization of Disney Media & Entertainment Distribution. As a result, Kareem Daniel will be leaving the company, and I hope you will all join me in thanking him for his many years of service to Disney.
Our goal is to have the new structure in place in the coming months. Without question, elements of DMED will remain, but I fundamentally believe that storytelling is what fuels this company, and it belongs at the center of how we organize our businesses.
This is a moment of great change and opportunity for our company as we begin our second century, and I am so proud to be leading this team again. I can’t say it enough: I’m incredibly grateful for the tremendous work you do each day, and for your commitment to maintaining the level of excellence Disney has always been known for.
I know change can be unsettling, but it is also necessary and even energizing, and so I ask for your patience as we develop a roadmap for this restructuring. More information will be shared over the coming weeks. Until a new structure is put in place, we will continue to operate under our existing structure. In the meantime, I hope you all have a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday, and thank you again for all you do.

The problem with Disney, Marvel, and especially Lucasfilm was too much power in their creative teams and not enough oversight.
I do think a large part of this is Iger’s mess, but Chapek also brought too much oversight and limitations to the creatives for the sake of cutting costs. That approach was not the move and led to a lot of butting heads. Iger gets the love because he lets the creatives create.
Even beyond those properties, the Disney Parks experience has been ruined by micromanagement. Perk reductions, lackluster guest satisfaction rates, cost raises, and a lot of things that used to be free over there before Iger left aren’t anymore. I’d like to think the imagineers are rejoicing.

Big issues here is that no one is talking about is the board was handpick by Bob Iger since he was the executive chairman of Disney and chairman while CEO. Interestingly Bob C was never given the role of chairman by the board which means he is on a short leash. Bob C took over the company during one of its toughest periods that doesn't help when you see that he did a terrible at managing. I think that was the real reason he was fired. Plus some of the other C level executives had issues with him. He stood no chance with the number of loyalist people to Bob Iger.
Disney won't acquire Netflix, that doesn't make sense plus disney would need to take a lot debt in order to make that deal work.
