even the wsj, which is better than most, gets it wrong. it was NOT because disney opposed it - it's because they loudly declared they'd actively fight to get it overturned.
Quote:
The Republican-led Florida Senate passed a bill Wednesday that would eliminate a special tax district that has allowed Walt Disney Co. to govern the land where its theme parks sit, as lawmakers target the company for opposing legislation restricting classroom instruction on gender and sexuality.
Disney has done enough cartoons to know that grabbing a Tiger by the tail is not wise.
They managed to bite 2 hands that feed them — Parents & the Florida Government.
I think DeSantis is acting like a petulant adolescent. Those who voice disagreement with his pronouncements should look out for penalizing legislation? Is that good government?

It sounds more to me like schoolyard stuff.
Disney vowed to lobby to get the Parental Rights bill overturned. They stepped into the political boxing ring, now it's time to be dinged. I'm hoping for a KO.

Not sure why Disney is so adamant on 2nd graders being exposed to sexuality and gender in the way this law prohibits.
This isn’t really about kids anyway. Their grooming all of us into universal tolerance. Sorry folks, there are something’s we clearly need to be intolerant of. Pedophilia being one of them.
Disney and it's shareholders are going to learn very quickly there is a silent very large majority that goes against this woke BS and that the majority of people paying for all things Disney are white men over the age of 40 who tend to be more conservative than most. Going woke is bad enough, but going woke centered around another persons children is insane.
Disney in a few short weeks effectively cut it's consumer base in half. The forward guidance on their earnings report next month is likely to be nothing short of ugly especially when you factor in this record inflation and people needing to cut nonessential spending out of their budget.
If netflix just lost 200,000 subscribers and thinks they'll lose another 2mm this spring I'd bet disney+ just lost 500,000 subscribers and can't even judge how many they'll lose over the next 12 months.
