Daniel Frankel: Well, Friday again. I gotta say, it's a difficult time to fixate on the U.S. technology, media and telecom business. I had a personal flashback, a moment of recollective whiplash if you will, as I read a compelling first-person review of found footage of the Hamas attack, that includes the voice of a mother cheering on her terrorist son over mobile phone to "Kill! Kill! Kill!” No "rushing" or "dragging" that time -- I was sincerely moved. Here in the U.S., the front-runner of the Republican party is obviously ripping pages from Adolf Hitler's campaign playbook, referring to people as "vermin." These aren't so much interesting times as they are disturbing ones. But I suppose it's time to move onto the not-so-visceral and on-topic... another fateful round of TMT earnings reports this week, with Disney revealing that it's going to subsume Hulu into Disney Plus, among other revelations. Now, if you do keyword searches for "Bob" and "Iger," you often come up with a post bylined by "David Bloom." So tell me, does he know what he's doing with the second biggest SVOD in America next to Netflix?
