Thread regarding Disney layoffs

As long as people like this are leading Disney, the company will continue to fail

Disney’s Bob Iger criticized after attending NBA games amid mass layoffs

The Wall Street Journal wrote an extensive article on Iger‘s return to the company as CEO. The article was entitled, ‘Bob Iger Isn’t Having Much Fun.’ But criticism has ramped up recently on him as mass layoffs have disrupted Disney and its properties like ESPN. Because it sure seems like he’s “having fun.”

Get rid of the creative leaders at Animation and Pixar.

They did that already, for not being “woke” enough. Those of us that actually work here know this well enough to keep our heads down.

@4csd+1nFfmM85 How on earth do you figure is ESG made up? Disney has one of the lowest risk ESG media scores outside of china: https://www.sustainalytics.com/esg-rating/the-walt-disney-co/1008069810

And why should kathleen kennedy be fired when she's just following the mandates instituted by not only bob iger and the board, but the primary shareholders, which does indeed include blackrock:

I don't know what advantage you gain from pretending ESG doesn't exist, but doing so is just flat out absurd: https://www.businessinsider.com/blackrock-esg-backlash-larry-fink-succession-2023-7

Stop blaming the made up ESG cartel. Bob has not done a damn thing yet. Stock price is down, movies are flopping, mass layoffs.

It is not Soros or Blackrock or any other bogeyman that is green lighting these flops. It’s the Studio heads. Fire Kathy Kennedy for turning ILM and Lucas into a money pit. Get rid of the creative leaders at Animation and Pixar. And on what made up planet should Alan Bergman have a job?
