I am sure Walt would be very disappointed.
This won’t make anyone happy.
Looks like Nexstar is joining Sinclair.

Another in a long line of bad decisions by weak leadership at Disney.
Gubmint is operated for the benefit of those who operate it.
Taxpayers be damned.
Same deal with large conglomerates, they are operated for the benefit of those who operate it.
Shareholders be damned.
And along came Trump.
He is a disruptor.
He is doing his best to break things that needed to be broken a long time ago.
Answered prayers.
Nextar plus Sinclair = 71 affiliates
Total ABC affiliates = 250.
Jimmy coming back 75%
The Magic Mouse of the past, now turns everything it touches into crap.
I haven’t watched network TV for decades and I see no reason to start now. Good luck Disney, you seem to have a knack for exactly the wrong decision at the wrong time.
Disney World 'empty' as Americans fear tourism is 'finished' in Florida
"Disney World has been a ghost town this summer, with visitors sharing different theories about what might be behind the quiet scenes at the popular theme park."

The Disney parks have gotten prohibitively expensive - far removed from the days when my dad would take all of us kids and our cousins (maybe once a year). For a family of four now it is well over $1,000 for a day's visit.
71 is a big hit in audience estimates used to generate ad rates. The show is already losing money. If it continues, it will leave a mark.
Jimmy Kimmel definitely won.
We win by Disney and ABC throwing millions of dollars in the toilet bringing them closer to bankruptcy and ending the cultural globohomo rot they promote.
“I want to be crystal clear: I and the entire leadership team unequivocally stand in support of our LGBTQ+ employees . . .”
The “T” in that jumble of letters stands for transgender.
“T” is a lifestyle that pretends a man can become a woman by wishing and self-mutilation.
I don’t believe that and for good reason. I don’t believe it because it is not true.
The leadership of the plastic rat claims it is true. And that means they can’t be trusted.
Hey, give Jimmy a break ... I’m sure all 97 of his viewers rejoiced at this decision to bring him back.
Trump is the equivalent of the meteor that supposedly killed off the dinosaurs 65 million years ago. Disney and the legacy media are the dinosaurs of 2025 America.
And the “+” in LGBTQ+ includes pedophiles, who they are trying to normalize.
