The case, scheduled to go to trial Jan. 27, was settled late last week, the Los Angeles Times reported. The terms were not disclosed.

Disney general counsel......allegedly was angered by (whistleblower's) refusal to sign off on Disney's response to an IRS audit. The nerve. Didn't she know paying taxes is only for the "little people?"

What a shame how Disney had deteriorted. Just wondering if Disney is one of the long list of contributors to Rev. Jesse J?

The point is not that liberals hate to pay taxes but that Disney considers itself above the law in the mold of all other greedy corporate crooks.

Probably. Reflexively liberal Disney's big on "tolerance and compassion" (barf).
Of course, for Christian-hating Disney, that does not apply to conservative Christians.
