Obviously, this would effect television and movies, as that's what Comcast is most interested in. But how will this effect the parks??? Hopefully, not much, but I'm just not sure what's up Comcast's sleeve right now. Perhaps they would be great running their parks (as the former head of Disneyland Paris, Stephen Burke, is their COO and Number 2 head honcho). Personally, I just don't like a cable operator having controlling interests in cable networks other TV interests. It could block out other studio and network interests in favor of its own. (Like dumping ESPN in favor of VS.) That sounds like a contradiction of interest to me that hopefully the FCC will investigate before the deal goes through.
