Disney isn't remotely "liberal". Just because someone isn't an alt-right, fact-averse Trump cultist doesn't mean they're "liberal".

They just have common sense, education and aren't living in the stone age. Normal people think that gays are human beings, immigrants are human beings, etc. This isn't some "radical" view.

I talked to someone who was a child actor in the 1950s.

He went on a casting call at Disney in that same decade and was approached by someone in production for the physical phase of the audition...hint-hint.

He refused, and the solicitor alerted the casting company that was used.

Because of that, the youth's resume now included the code word "Uncooperative".

People who don't want to have to ____ or ____ for their job (they both rhyme).

Whether it's you, your kid, your husband or wife, or your mom or dad, SO/DP/LP would be my guess...not that there's anything wrong with that.

If you want Conservative Entertainment, go to the rodeo and local bars.
There are some conservatives/Republicans in Hollywood but they are staying silent.

The parks were the only part of their business that did well in the seventies and early eighties, prior to Eisner taking over from Miller. The company probably would not have survived if Eisner took over. But the liberalization begain under Miller, it just ramped up further under Eisner.

Bob Iger, the CEO of Disney, is a very prominent liberal Dem activist.
