Meetings up in Seattle with potential candidates to succeed Roy Price continue as one early leading candidate for the job, Fox TV Group chairman Dana Walden, is no longer in the running.

[Tha' Palace]: Seattle, Wash.--Sources had told Deadline that the timing did not work for Walden who is focusing for the moment on co-running Fox Broadcasting Co, and 20th Century Fox TV and would not engage in deeper conversations at Amazon, which has been meeting with candidates in the past few weeks while Walden has been reading pilot scripts and getting ready for pilot season. Additionally, Walden has been tipped for a possible big TV role in the merged Disney-Fox, so she may want to keep her options open for the moment.
