No nonsense, cuts through all the BS and gives you the true message. She's quite brilliant! Disney is certainly paying a steep price for licking tRUMP's lift-filled, smelly shoes.

They have their tongues so far up his bloated ass, they can taste his hamberders before he does.

Serves them right.

n/t

It leads to tyranny.

HA

accurate trump should have never have gotten a second term.

At least from my observation, many Americans are pretty lazy an complacent. If it wasn't so we would not have lost the Supreme Court, Roe V Wade, an erosion of the civil rights and voting rights act, environmental protections, workers rights, civil rights, etc.

I canceled yesterday

If you provide enough backlash trump will turn tail and run. Now he is going to infiltrate Memphis. Pritzker is now facing articles of impeachment from an Illinois MAGA politician but I don't see this going anywhere.

aura down a notch. Backlash is the first step.

Maybe Disney doesn't care about money as much as something else. And / or ....

Maybe Disney doesn't know what they care about.

Now they're losing the people here. I don't think too many maga families can afford a Disney vacation.

and making stuff up.

than the reaction from one angry toddler in the White House.

They need to be reminded who pays them. And it ain’t Trump.

Boycott Disney, hit em in the pocketbook.

I had no ads so it was almost $20 a month. I plan to donate the amount to southern Oregon PBS.

People here were saying there was no choice to say why you quit, my drop down of choices had other which I hit and window popped up to say why, I said two words. Jimmy Kimmel.

Then I joined a fitness center.

Walt would not recognize his company.

What is happy about Star Wars soldiers and dead and wounded.

Mickey is saying :wtf!

They got high on Trump farts and it clouded their judgement.

I knew an animator that worked for them years and they used to call their managers “dis-nazis”

cancelations are worth the future deals. Maybe they are picking up subscriptions from RWrs. Maybe they already factored in the backlash.

I haven't seen any statement from them or published cancellation numbers or drops in revenue. Seems like hopeful speculation

I don't believe this was a spontaneous decision or discussion by Disney...they've been following the news, they've heard from the administration before, they know who is on the WH enemies list. And were prepared.

I support a continued boycott and an even more widespread boycott/strike, so I'm hopeful as well about what people are doing; i just don't know what effect it is having yet.

Disney closed at 115.23 on the 16th.
Disney canned Kimmel on the 17th (Wed.).
Disney closed at 113.76 on the 19th, down 1.47 from Tues, a loss of market cap of $2.64 billion in three days.

All speculation.

Less than market cap is down less than $3B, so about 1.5%; not nothing, but they've seen much worse.

I'm pretty sure that their quarterly reports show streaming numbers, so I would expect to see a big drop there, which is the opposite of what they forecast at the end of Q3 FY25.

~54% of their profit comes from the Experiences segment (theme parks around the world, Disney Cruise Line, and Disney Vacation Club), so if people cancel vacations (which I'm guessing most people won't do), they could take a hit there.

It's going to have to shake out over the next quarter or two to really see the impact.

Mitt was FOS too.

Rec!!!

Has canceled his subscriptions to Hulu and Disney. Americans are seriously angry about this major assault on the First Amendment.

Say what you will, Americans deeply love the Constitution.

especially the news that it's happening offshore, also. That's the part I don't think Disney was expecting. They were prepared to deal with a few liberal soreheads here, but the fact that this is spreading is freaking them out.

Remember"Turn on, tune in, drop out?" I suggest we update that for a new maniac in the White house:

Turn it off
Tune them out

Drop their asses.

I like her forcefulness and articulation. But Disney does not have any merger in the works that needs FCC approval. Nexstar does, and Nexstar is not owned by Disney.

There's been some talk about Disney selling ABC to Nexstar, but I don't know how far it has gotten.

Target decided to cater to the very loud but small minority and found out the hard way the quiet majority will just shop elsewhere.

Disney is learning that now. I boycott with my wallet, not my social media account.

Disney found out the problem in adapting American history into a 'feel good' experience.

Song of the South ring a bell? Censorship?

Now it's Star Wars and stupid animation which I never would watch.

Knotts Berry Farm is pretty nice without the baggage.

They rely on the goodwill of their customers, the people that are watching, their supporters.

Attendance to Disney attractions will go down.
Tesla will lose sales.
Israel will lose status and cooperative help from other countries.
Trump will slump at the next election.

Did they all think that support from their customers was immutable? That it couldn't dissipate with any wrong moves?
Must be nice to be that self assured and dumb at the same time!

Bigwigs at Disney: We built Disney into what it is today!
Me: Actually, the money you convinced your customers to spend did that.
Unconvince them, and watch your revenue stream suffer.
