Media Boy, the A&E channels: History, H2, Blaze, C&E, Vice are not owned by Disney, as far as the UK goes.

When Disney bought most of Murdoch's companies, the European Commission ordered Disney to sell off the A&E channels as they decided that Disney would be too dominant in the factual channels genre in the EU.

These channels, as far as the UK goes, are a joint venture between Hearst and Comcast (Sky).
