“Seriously, what did you step in!”
I considered doing an article on this last week, but I’m just tired of talking about how Bob Iger clearly doesn’t care about Walt Disney’s legacy, and outright rejects it. I’m also not sure what I could add to this article from That Park Place about Iger’s recent comments about how the man who created the company you work for shouldn’t be “revered” because it holds them back or something. That’s an insult to the animator whose goal was to make families happy. “Let’s respect our past and not revere it.” he says. He’s not doing either by rejecting the form of media Walt created the company for and allowing the parks to turn into everything Walt was trying to push back against in the amusement park industry. Both of those things worked very well for the company and its reputation until Iger came along.
