In other news - the fight between Elon Musk and Disney CEO Bob Iger has added another chapter. The CEO of X is now looking for people who want to sue Disney for discrimination, even offering to help pay for their legal fees. Musk's call to arms comes on the same day that actress Gina Carano filed a lawsuit against Disney and Lucasfilm, accusing them of wrongfully terminating her from her role in “The Mandalorian.” Musk is also helping to pay for her case.
The new addition to the feud comes on the heels of Disney’s first-quarter earnings report, in which it highlighted the revenue it lost from its Marvel franchises.
On its earnings call, Iger addressed the future of Marvel, saying quote “One of the things that I've been saying before is that, you know, volume sometimes can be detrimental to quality, and in our zeal to greatly increase volume, partially tied to wanting to chase more global subs for our streaming platform, some of our studios lost a little focus.”
Disney released three Marvel films in 2023 - Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania, The Marvels, and Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3. The Marvels has the unwanted distinction of the lowest domestic and global box office totals in the studio’s history.
I love stories like this. God bless Elon Musk.
Good for Elon Musk.
But I wish he’d also go after Microsoft. They are strangling conservative news and installing left wing biased news via Microsoft Start.
God bless Elon Musk!
Um… Trump has come to the aid of some Disney and now bud light.
So.. do you follow principles which should punish corporations who sexualize and expose children to destructive lifestyles or do you go trump and support them cuz they pay.. Who is more important your children, grandchildren or some companies and their paid propagandists.
lost a little focus,......... try the adoption of the woke gay lesbian transgender agenda
Yes, MSN.com is an absolute joke. Every day it’s headline news bashing Trump..
Todays headlines:
“Jan.6th tweet could doom Trump”
“Trump expected to pay $400 million”
” Trump begs Jack Smith to drop ‘all litigation’ against him”
“Liz Cheney shares warning about Donald Trump witnesses”
“Judge affirms $83.3 million verdict against Donald Trump in E. Jean Carroll defamation case”
“Did Trump engage in insurrection? US supreme court largely ignores question”
“‘Completely Deranged’: CNN Fact-Checker Shreds Trump’s New ‘Bonkers Nonsense’”
And then we have ONE story on Biden in tiny letters:
“Biden will not face charges over classified papers, says ‘memory is fine’”
Drudgereport is basically MSN..
IBTZ! You could do this forum a great service if you’d present your opus. Good times to be had with that.
Um… Trump has come to the aid of some Disney and now bud light.

I don’t agree with your conclusion that Trump is “coming to the aid” of either Disney or AB.
Trump needs trainloads of money and he needs it NOW. He has to do everything he can to get money.
Instead of pecking at him, we all should be down on our knees praying that Trumps heart keeps beating. There is no equal to Trump on the political scene in America. If his heart stops beating, we are probably doomed to a total nincumpoot like Haley or the ultimate disaster Biden or Harris.
Puhlease!
Yup. For example, the new climate cult platform website, The Cooldown.
I have noticed a massive increase in posts by that site being proudly fronted by ms.
Dont pick too many fights at once.
Elon going after Microsoft right now while actively going after Disney at the same time, is akin to Germany invading Russia before defeating western Europe.
Is Elon thinking about buying Disney ? LOL
Didn’t the google buy Drudge Report? They both suck wind
Disney and AB give Trump money???
I come here to get the news, even though it’s relayed it’s the news, really. not some ‘here’s your morning propaganda breakfast’.
And the FR comments...(of course).
I mean, they’re the icing on the cake ;)
I don’t know.
My point was and is solely that, if he is, he is doing so solely because he is running for President and thus he quite naturally needs trainloads of money.
