I’ve never understood the appeal of this company to the public.

Leftist commies will NOT be satisfied until they have subsumed ALL of America into their diseased philosophy dreams and destroyed, jailed, or killed the last conservative.

Wake up, America. You have enemies.

Would a National Review, free market conservative support Iger’s decision?

Always a bit too syrupy for my tastes even as a kid. Some of Walt’s work was strikingly beautiful. I still preferred the wise cracking Warner looney tunes.

It’s put up or shut up time: Is Disney getting any tax incentives from GA? If so, explain THAT, Iger.

And a note to GA: Just get out of the bribery biz.

He is holding a loaded and cocked pistol to his head, yelling, “Don’t laugh...you’re next!”

I guess you missed the announcement that the Little Mermaid is a transgendered lesbian...as well as the celebration of NAMBLA Day at Disney World.

Support his right to make the decision, perhaps.

So, he’s admitting Dizknee can’t function without child sacrifice!

Maybe Iger should forbid residents of Alabama, Georgia, Mississippi, Louisiana, etc. from Disney entertainments.

Iger was born to a Jewish family in New York City.[5][6][7] He is the son of Mimi (née Tunick) and Arthur L. Iger (b. 1926).[8][9] His father was a World War II veteran who served as the executive vice president and general manager of the Greenvale Marketing Corporation, and was also a professor of advertising and public relations.[8] His mother worked at Boardman Junior High School in Oceanside, New York.[10][11] Arthur’s father Joe (i.e. Robert’s paternal grandfather) was cartoonist Jerry Iger’s brother.

Disney has been “woke” and in the tank for the LGBTQ mafia agenda before “woke” was a word. I’m not surprised.

Considering that Uncle Walt helped in the ferreting out of communists in Hollywood back in the 1950s (which forever earned him the disdain of the left), he would not be too impressed with this fellow and others running his company today, wouldn't he?

He should have shut up.

Very, very bad move.

For real.
