Disney: The Most Evil Business In The World

So are you saying that Reedy Creek had an advantage over the other businesses in the area like Universal?

That’s not at all what I’m saying.

Reedy Creek is not a business in the area.

Reedy Creek is to Disney what Orange County is to Sea World and Universal Studios.

In a round about way what you are saying is that Reedy Creek was run better than the county run agencies and in fact since they were self-managed, they took care of their own and other companies had a dis-advantage by not having their own "Reedy Creek". So Disney had an advantage.

If you meant to say Disney has an advantage over other businesses, instead of Reedy Creek, I agree with you.
 
Disney+ Subscriptions Plummet by 4 Million as Studio Keeps Pushing Transgender, Drag Queen Content

Disney+ subscriptions experienced a steep drop off during the first three months of 2023, with the woke streaming service losing a whopping 4 million customers globally. Overall, Disney’s streaming business continues to bleed money with no sign of profitability in sight.

While most of the Disney+ losses resulted from the end of the Hotstar deal in India, the streamer posted an unexpected loss of 300,000 subscribers in the U.S. and Canada as more consumers wake up to Disney’s relentless push of transgender and drag queen content in its entertainment for children.

I'm proud of you for sharing the 2nd paragraph
 
In a round about way what you are saying is that Reedy Creek was run better than the county run agencies and in fact since they were self-managed, they took care of their own and other companies had a dis-advantage by not having their own "Reedy Creek". So Disney had an advantage.

Sure, Disney invested in Orange County when there was nothing there.
 
I doubt DeSantis is pleased with the news this morning that Disney has cancelled the move of its Imagineering division to Florida, a $1 billion development that meant 2000 new jobs averaging $120,000 per employee.

I thought Repubs were supposed to be pro-business. Can't wait to see Trump's response to this.

Where will they place it? Have them in CA to own the desantis and pay higher wages and more taxes? Good own.

Nolte: Disney Caves and Prepares to Stream ESPN

Soon Disney’s ESPN network will be available to cord-cutters as a standalone streaming service, the Wall Street Journal reports.

The child abusers at Disney did launch ESPN+, a standalone streaming outlet, in 2018. That service costs about $10 a month and has attracted around 25 million subscribers. But ESPN+ is not ESPN. If you want to watch the NBA or NFL, those games are only available on ESPN.

The original ESPN, which is only available via cable and satellite TV, is much more lucrative for Disney’s groomers. Currently available in 74 million American households, the ESPN network receives a whopping $9.42 per month per cable bill. What this means—and this is important—is that if ESPN is available on your cable package, you are funneling $9.42 per month to the groomers at Disney by way of ESPN.

Second, and most important, making ESPN available as a standalone streaming service will accelerate the death of cable TV. Millions likely subscribe to cable TV just to get ESPN. But now, instead of paying $180 a month for ESPN through cable TV, they will pay $30 per month to stream ESPN—which hurts Disney elsewhere.

Culture wars gone wrong.

They are existing jobs already housed in CA. They could still decide to move them later if they have a better relationship with the next governor. It was the prior CEO's idea and he got a lot of pushback from employees not wanting to move across the country. I always thought it was odd that Ron seemed to have no problem with the $578 mil tax break they were getting for the relocation.

HA: This is an editorial by a right-wing site masquerading as a "news story." There is not an iota of evidence in the piece that the fall in subscriptions is related to content--and, indeed, Breitbart contradicts its own tendentious and misleading headline by noting early in the story that "most of the Disney+ losses resulted from the end of the Hotstar deal in India" and thus had nothing to do with content.

The fall in subs is due to price increases and the loss of Hotstar. Whether it's "woke" or whatever, Iger admits that a lot of their current programming (even those with good reviews by viewers) are not driving subscriptions. Steaming is a hot mess for just about anyone not named Netflix.

Disney still has plans to spend 17 billion on construction at DW over the next decade. Guessing they still view Florida as pro business.

$1.7 billion a year for the next 10 years sounds like a lot since the Reedy Creek advantage is going away. Maybe they should claw that back and put it into California's theme park, since that seems to be where everyone wants to live.

Disney can't (or won't) move the FL parks. They do have thousands of highly paid corporate employees that they could relocate anywhere fairly easily. That's the lever Disney has if they want to use it...

And they pulled the lever. A company deciding against a large corporate campus expansion is not a good thing....
