Disney is reportedly set to increase its $52.4 billion bid for 21st Century Fox to fend off Comcast.

CNBC reports Disney is prepared to add cash to its all-stock offer to win the bidding, however, the exact amount is not known. Last week, Comcast made an estimated $65 billion bid for Fox's assets after its offer last year was rejected due to antitrust concerns.

Looks like Disney is really worried that Comcast will make an offer that Fox can't refuse.
