What if The Walt Disney Company merged with Capital Cities/ABC in 1993?

In 1995, Disney announced a $19 billion merger of equals with Capital Cities/ABC Inc., which at the time was the second largest corporate takeover. Through the deal, Disney would obtain broadcast network ABC, an 80% majority stake in sports network ESPN and ESPN 2, 50% in Lifetime Television, a majority stake of DIC Entertainment, and a 37.5% minority stake in A&E Television Networks. Following the deal, in November 1995, ABC Radio Networks and Children's Broadcast Corp. reached an agreement for ABC Radio to provide marketing and sales to Radio AAHS. After Disney's acquisition of CC/ABC, Disney had ABC Radio cancel the agreement in August 1996 plus announced the start of its own children's network and ended AAHS's Disney World broadcasting rights. On November 18, 1996, the company started a radio program focused for youth on ABC Radio Network called Radio Disney.
But what if The Walt Disney Company merged with Capital Cities/ABC to form Disney–ABC Enterprises on June 30, 1993.
