Who runs the film studio? Who gets the keys to the TV kingdom? And will a Murdoch be in line for Bob Iger’s throne?

Well, it would be a good deal from a Marvel fan's perspective. Disney owns Marvel, but 20th Century Fox still has the TV and movie rights to the X-Men, Fantastic Four, and some other Marvel characters. So, with a merger, perhaps there will finally be an Avengers / X-Men crossover movie.

Won't ever happen. There's no way the Justice Dept. allows that scale of a merger to go through.
