The Walt Disney Company is an interesting study.  Among the wealthiest corporations on earth, its management seems to be comfortable veering away from the traditional American consumer.

 

Jimmy Kimmel, The View ladies, George Stephanopoulos, and much of the network's news staff are all ardent leftists.  The Entertainment Division, based in Burbank, California, is woke and dismissive of counterpoints of view.  Non-liberals are shunned.

 

In fact, Disney has no conservative voices on display in any of its enterprises.

 

Add to that the ticket prices for the theme parks.  Exorbitant.  That effectively denies poor families access.  The children can't go because their parents can't afford it.

 

That does not seem very "progressive" to me.  But maybe ideology only goes so far.

 

It's all about leadership, of course.  Disney executives set the prices, approve programming, hire personnel, and the company continues to make mighty profits.

 

But there's something a bit off here. Disney was built on providing wholesome entertainment to traditional Americans. What happened?

 

I don't know.  But I won't be surprised if big changes descend on Mickey and the crew.  When you wish on a progressive star, dreams and profits can quickly turn dark.

 

See you this evening for the No Spin News.
