Embattled Disney CEO Bob Chapek told employees during a virtual town hall Monday that he regretted not taking a public stance against Florida's controversial 'Don't Say Gay' bill.
Chapek, who is already facing leadership problems amid a rift with his predecessor, Bob Iger, and discontent from employees who remain loyal to Iger thanks to his glittering tenure at the helm of the entertainment giant, said that Disney made a mistake by not publicly decrying the bill.
'I and the leadership team are determined to use this moment as a catalyst for more meaningful and lasting change,' Chapek, 61, said during a rushed virtual town hall meeting.
The so-called 'Don't Say Gay' bill, which bans the teaching of lessons on sexuality, gender identity and sexual orientation from kindergarten up to third grade, has led to planned walkouts by Disney employees condemning the company's silence over the issue.
Chapek also pledged to fiercely oppose Texas Governor Greg Abbott's attempt to investigate parents of children undergoing gender-transitioning procedures for child abuse, The Wall Street Journal reported.

What the hell?
This company is demonic.
Boycott now!!
Walt Disney must be rolling in his grave.
This man spits the face of his own customers in order to pander to a tiny minority of perverts given a loud voice by the fake news echo chamber.
No parent would ever tolerate their children being groomed like this in his parks, and he knows it.
Yeah. Walt would never make comments like this.
The Family Company he founded and led has become a Woke Anti-Family Company led by an idiot.
He’s a freak with no moral compass.
Andrew Klavan interviewed a woman (sorry can’t remember her name) Friday who was in the know on the subject.
This Disney leader , she claims, is much less leftist than Eisner. She explained the big shareholders of Disney are woke and he was targeted by several leftist groups that threatened him through boycotting etc.
So he caved. I actually have the link to the show though, it’s good:
Chepek is hated by many in Disney for not being woke enough.
Company is demonic. It can’t survive cultural marxism and will simmer and rot itself away.
All woke companies should be paying a 95% tax rate. Because it would truly show how woke they are.
The legsation should be strengthened to include older kids. Maybe that will induce Disney to move its moral pollution elsewhere.
CEO Bob Chapek must be a freaken Homo child molesting POS . Disney has been a lesbo/homo/Tranny mecca for years. My grand kids will never go there.
Nothing projects corporate leadership like bowing down to the mob over a common sense ideology.
Disney theme parks,Disney movies,Disney movie discs,ABC Television Network,ESPN...
No- he’s a failed CEO grasping at straws who will be out sooner than later. Everything this guy has done has been a disaster. He’s the CEO version of zhao biden
Gee, tough choice.....placate the LGBTQ+ employees (who love little children) or placate the straight paying customers who what to protect their children from all dangers! MMMMM what to do, what to do? What is best for the bottom line of the corporation?
have been for years. problem is, there are more stupid people in the US than people of principle, so it has no impact. Still, not changing what I’m doing just because everyone else is stupid.
When Disney bought Star Wars - broken heart.
When Disney bought Marvel Comics - broken heart.
And directly after those events, both went woke. go figure. They are also dead to me and no longer get my income.
Disney is a perverse corporation intent on the grooming of children to the end that they be perverse.
The evil forces behind this entity really need to be put down forever.
Don’t say Disney!
