Saying “Sorry” I’d often done by replacing the CEO and “balancing the needs of all stakeholders.” Waiting for it...

Check out Disney's 10-K for FYE 2021. Specifically, on page 37 see the summary of segment revenue and operating income. The parks are not as profitably as they used to be, and the Media and Entertainment division's strength is their Linear Networks:

◦ Domestic Channels: ABC Television Network (ABC) and eight owned ABC television stations (Broadcasting), and Disney, ESPN, Freeform, FX and National Geographic branded domestic television networks (Cable)
◦ International Channels: Disney, ESPN, Fox, National Geographic and Star branded television networks outside of the U.S.
◦ A 50% equity investment in A+E Television Networks (A+E), which operates a variety of cable channels including A&E, HISTORY and Lifetime

You want to hurt Disney? That's where the boycott has to bite.

Many families enjoy the theme parks, but some cranky fat white guy like you says...get rid of them and you would take that away from people. I smell some envy if your angry rant. Like maybe you did not have the money to take your family to an Orlando vacation . It’s ok, someone has to dig the ditches and clean out the septic tanks. But don’t take your white-collar envy out here. It shows.

Damn, that’s a lot.

I own the BluRays for any of the movies I watch/rewatch.
I don’t watch tv, and when the blacks started kneeling I stopped all sports.

When they close shop in Orlando I hope they restore the facility to its original landscape. Orlando was a beautiful town before Disney.

Why pick one?

Just refuse to buy everything Disney.

We’ve been doing it for years.

It’s no biggie.

But hey, Jenna Ellis is defending their free ride in court. That’s worth something…

Iger is the vile, leftist scoundrel that brought Disney down the woke path and hired all the lowlifes. Leftist lowlifes at their core are chronically paranoid. Right now they fear the bogeymen of their delusions are coming to get them. It is they who want Iger back to protect them.

That predates my FL time. I lived there from 2000-2013.
Jax, Patrick AFB, and Gainesville…
Only went to Orlando once in 2003 to bar hop.

I don’t think Disney will leave. I can’t imagine what that would cost.

We’ve learned about reproduction in the 8th grade during health class. What is third grade s***?

I can understand teaching kids to be wary of strangers and how to take appropriate action when approached, how to recognize when things are going to get inappropriate and who could be the perps, and evasive actions that should be taken.

But the full Monty at 8 or 9 years of age? No, totally inappropriate.

There’s tons of international visitors to the park.
I don’t think they will care or stop coming.
A lot of Japanese at Disneyland, and lots of Krauts at Disneyworld.

Of course, the more the merrier.

One writer noted that families with kids are no longer their target market, in part because there aren't as many families with kids. Further, many families may be wokesters who LIKE genderless pronouns from greeters etc.

Fair enough. But there simply aren't enough people like that to support the costs of the parks. Further, they're shunning the normals who used to spend a lot of money in the (mistaken) belief that the wokesters will spend more. I believe it is a death spiral.

Until they revamp those faltering business lines, their lifeline is Linear Networks.

“Bulldoze it, all the way down to the dirt including the foundations and throw it in the ocean.”

Then perform an exorcism on the land where it used to sit.

“Jenna Ellis is defending their free ride in court.”

Yes. While the Jan. 6 POWs cool their heels in solitary confinement with no decent legal representation. Good job, Jenna!

They are women right? Or at least the CEO is? I think whole lot of women, especially white women have gone so woke that I don’t even want to be lumped in with them as a woman. They are nasty and they are out to destroy. Just my opinion.

Disney Florida needs to, instead, focus on how to stop their alligators from eating their child guests.
