A stunning loss in company value is being reported by The Washington Examiner for the Disney Corporation. On March 29th, they were valued at over $140.00 per share. By April 22nd they had dropped to $120 per share.
WASHINGTON EXAMINER – “Disney’s stock has lost nearly $50 billion in value since the start of March, when it took a political gamble to oppose Florida’s controversial new education law. Disney’s stock was down more than 2% on Friday and by more than 8.5% over the past few days as Florida lawmakers work to punish the company for wading into the state’s politics. The stock’s market cap has declined by about $46.6 billion since March 1, just days before the company came out against the legislation.” (read more)
A recent poll by conservative-leaning Trafalgar Group [DATA HERE] might explain why:
68% of the respondents would be less likely to do business with the Disney Corporation as a result of the company position on K-3 students participating in gender/sexuality discussions in Elementary Schools. Considering the primary audience for Disney products would be families with children, it certainly looks like the results of the company politics will be financially painful for the corporation.
Disney has come out of the closet, not only as a corporation intent on the advancement of sexual identity, but also with a corporate mission to influence the sexualization of our children. This March 29, 2022, open expression of their corporate mission is disturbing on many levels.
During a conference call to explain the corporate intents of the company, Disney entertainment president Karey Burke says, “As the mother [of] one transgender child and one pansexual child,” she supports having “many, many, many LGBTQIA characters in our stories” and wants a minimum of 50 percent of characters to be LGBTQIA and racial minorities.
Anyone who claims to have a child described as “pansexual” needs to be investigated immediately.
Absolutely. A very sick and twisted mind.
The parent may be pansexual itself.
I have to look that up, don’t even know what that means, do I even want to know?
Having sex with anyone or anything alive, dead, animate or inanimate.
Of course that may actually be Omnisexual.
/s
“Pansexual” is a dreadful perversion…
…victims get their jollies by doing unnatural things to cooking ware. 😉
Would not doubt that some of the perverts actually do just that.
I wonder if this “woman” has had conversations with the buddy of Osama named Dan Savage who pushed Osama and the normalization of sex with young boys.
Teflon?
😁
you know frank zappa put out an album in i believe 1979 called joe’s garage.he mentions a pansexual orbital plooker named gay bob “he goes all the way”.
The white zone is for loading and unloading only, isn’t it?
That’s why they call it Hells Kitchen
Pan-sexual is a pretty word for Multi-sexual.
God only knows if that individual would have sex with a goat.
What she did to her children is unforgivable.
Definitely- the children only “identify” as those things cuz the parents told them too. So sick.
This perverted woman uses her two kids as props for leftist street cred. Any normal sane mother would not be bragging about this publicly. No different than the parents of “Jazz” Jennings who have prostituted their mentally ill child for profit by taking their beautiful boy child and turning him into a caricature of a woman.
I had a very liberal progressive boss that always brought up in meetings how they had a child on the autism spectrum. Threw it in everyone’s face, used it like a cudgel to show how virtuous and down with the struggle they were and we should blindly get in line and follow their dictats lest we be deemed hateful . Leftists of all stripes use their children as props, it’s sick.
We dwell, we are trapped in a world of post-Christians who struggle every day to find the most mundane of moral guidance. Pedophilia is right or wrong? Business executives making $millions can’t solve this puzzle. Terrifying..
They need to hurt more than that. The rest there are no words right now.
When its stock has crashed to the penny stocks board, its board of directors, ceo and a majority of its execs prosecuted for child abuse as pedophiles, then maybe.
And this is a perfect example of how we use our power. We hold the purse strings. You would have thought Disney understood this. Apparently not…but I suspect they are getting it now.
Maybe not. The Woke Bunch is a wilfully stubborn lot.
Woke corporations understand one thing…their bottom lines. Nothing else. Just that.
The shareholders csrtainly understand the bottom line.
Oh yes they do.
Actually, the woke corporations don’t care as much about their bottom lines as they did in the past. They take their bottom lines for granted. This is the result of decades of mergers and acquisitions that should never have been approved, resulting in basically two super-conglomerates owning virtually everything – Vanguard and Blackrock.
Don’t like the price of Heinz ketchup, and think you’ll try a competing brand? It’s likely that both brands are owned by either Vanguard or Blackrock. At the level of big corporations and national brands, there is no competition any longer, and all prices are colluded on and fixed. Because they don’t have to worry about competing any longer, they can focus on wokism.
Disney is a special case, but one look at the actual extent of their holdings is both breathtaking and horrifying (the top two shareholders of Disney are Vanguard and Blackrock).
Yes. I must remember that we are in a different world now. This I did not know. My world, now destroyed and buried, included corporations which sought to serve a client base with a product or service, simply put, as their raison d’etre. If Blackrock or Vanguard are involved, that tells me everything. The global spider’s web.
worth repeating that imo the political Left is a religion, and so becoming ‘Woke’ is the rough equivalent Christians being ‘born again’. Previous would explain why they view us conservatives as evil, and why they seem not to care about the financial well-being of their corporations.
Very true, I just hope that more people would pull their $$ away from everything disney!
And I do, Sherry. Believe me I’ve gotten the word out to my 2 children whose own children are still in the age group that Disney targets. And guess what? They both have myriad friends with children the same age…and those friends the same. Everyone knows one, tells one, and soon enough the word spreads faster than a wildfire. The proverbial ripples in the water.
A couple of my grandkids surprised me when they stopped all disney for my great-grandkids. Generally they have done nothing that means any sacrifice for them. Where my other 2 grandkids are super conservative and thoroughly believe in no money anything woke or liberal at all.
Oh good for them! I’m hoping this awakening is highly contagious, especially when children are involved. A very lovely surprise indeed.
May Degenerantworld slide under the sea.
LGBTQIDGAF!
LGBTQIAMLEGION. The demonic influence manifests.
👍👍👍
Noice!
I really, REALLY wish I had some Disney stock to dump…
We did. Our financial manager told us most of her clients dumped the stock.
That was a couple of weeks ago.
Sell short!
That’s what I call a good start. Trap the devil mouse.
With their price structure and the economic burdens being placed on middle class families, it seems they are looking at college age and up mostly singles for their new market. Why else would they not care about offending traditional families?
Yes, but why crap on a market that built your fortune?
While they were still family friendly–the happiest place on earth–they were conspicuously godless. This seems to be a natural progression.
Because since obama came to power, it’s been a steady, systematic destruction of everything American.
NASA, Football, Mickey mouse, you name it. Money doesn’t factor into it.
Bingo.
It still can without going all out LGTBQxyz.
In my younger days I had several twenty and thirtysomething single Christian friends who enjoyed group trips to Disneyland without having it necessary to cater to deviancy.
You do see more and more childless adults at the parks. It’s not surprising Millennials, whose oldest members of the cohort are now 41, have had the fewest children of any generation in history.
Perhaps many have been led to believe focusing on careers is more important than child rearing, that having children is an avoidable burden, contributing to overpopulation, money is better spent on oneself rather than on children.
Children are an expensive impedement to having fun!
Sad what too many millenials have missed by not having families.
65 yo here. We had 6 children who, at 5 year increvals, went to the “Magic Kingdom” (patriarchal) in ’82 (1 kid), ’87 (4 kids), and ’92 (all 6). My sanity was suffering by the last trip so we took an “off day” in between Disney days. Disney, I think, had already decided to welcome SS couples to the parks and cater to them by the time of our last trip. That did it for me after that, and we decided when we went somewhere with our grandkids that it would be somewhere God (sorry) had gave us for a playground-mountain, beach, forest. I think I’m like most guys and gals here on the TH. I don’t care what you do in your home or bedroom-that’s none of my business. But don’t ask me to validate your lifestyle or accept teaching elementary school children about sex. Any sex. I think middle school is now 6, 7, and 8 and I think that is the earliest anything should be taught about sex. Sorry for taking up so much space-it’s back to Svenghoulie!
Nice comment, Steve. Almighty God (not sorry) gave us a whole country of “playgrounds”. How lucky for your brood you decided to explore them. Best to you, sir.
Disney, now part of the problem.
As are too many other major corporations.
Disney script writers are doing cartoon with Mickey Mouse and Goofy having gay sex
All OK at Disney – no worries at all
Last visited Disneyland about twenty years ago and even then it seemed it was a very gay amusement park.
Those behind this should be prosecuted or dealt with.
To start with, this “entertainment president” is the first head to roll. The first among many. And, silence a few heiresses.
This is the company that Walt and Roy made from ink and paint and vision. I want that company back.
At least these officers, and probably the whole damned board, need to go away forever. Seven dwarfs got rid of a wicked witch. Maybe they can do it again…
In a muslim country their heads actually would be rolling.
The hand-drawn animation was so beautiful. A lost art form.
I can’t stand all the new plastic animation bots. I mean, they *really* bug me. Can’t watch it.
ittle Girl….OMG Mommy its snow white..lets go over and meet her!!
Snow White…Let’s talk all about your sexuality
I can only imagine Walt Disney would be horrified to see the work of his life be turned into the horror show it has become.
Still enjoy now and then watching his creative classic Fantasia and to see the minds of young children manipulated into some adult’s perverse idea of humanity – the disconnect between the two is appalling.
If you add up the “Much Likely,” “Somewhat Likely,” and “No Difference” groups you get about 32% of respondents who actively or passively approve of the company’s position.
That about matches the societal split ratio sundance has recently been highlighting.
Biden voters. All of them.
Families are definitely their main target.
Families spend, then the kids grow up and repeat the cycle.
An absolute never ending goal mine.
They have interrupted that cycle now.
Special kind of stupid. But degenerates impulse to “normalize” their behaviors is just too strong.
Its the goal of the degenerates to not just force normalization but demand we all celebrate and participate in their behaviors.
Similar to the housing bubble, I think we’re witnessing the collapse of the woke bubble. The parasites, the wokesters have so isolated themselves and dug themselves into major companies and institutions that as this bubble bursts we’re likely to get flash floods from all the liberal tears. They will take major corporations down with them.
From your lips to God’s ears….
The Bursting of the Woke Bubble.
I like that! Nice imagery.
Exxon has announced they will not fly either the BLM or the LGBTetc flags any more outside their headquarters. That they ever had them flying is one of life’s mysteries. But they’ve broken woke ranks. It will be very interesting to see if it is a one of or a trend.
Some of these companies just went along to get along. Like people following the covid rules, just going along to get along.
But things are starting to turn everywhere. A bit late, but better late than never.
I think they will cave under the pressure that is undoubtedly coming. I hope not, but it’s happened too many times before.
XOM is hurting some since they got kicked of the big DOW industrial list. They are quick learners. However,
One article I read about 8 months ago, they were removed because they could not sustain a higher per share price for common stock. After I had read that, there was an article that implied the company was going to go greenish. In other words, waiting to see which way the wind turbine spins.
By me, their gasoline is more expensive than other companies. And no per mile improvement.
Since Disney is it’s own “country” in Florida it pays no property taxes which is the source of school tax. As every Florida homeowner knows when he gets the county tax assessment at least 50% of the annual tax bill is for schools. Now, it takes some kind of Hutzpah for Disney who pays no school tax in Florida to demand that LBGTBQE crap is taught to children in Kindergarten when the voices of parents who do pay taxes is ignored!
precisely
Excellent point!
Didn’t Gov DeSantis just end that perk for Disney?
Yes. They had it since 1968.
I especially liked it when DeSantis brought up the fact that a park in Florida was dictating policy. And the said business was home based in California.
My own thoughts is that giving them until 2023 was too generous.
I 100% agree, Aggiegirl.
But it’s possible the Gov has to start the new policy in a new fiscal year.
Excellent point.
We’ve now radicalized Micky Mouse. New low.
Hopefully , Mickey will be losing his never ending copyright soon.
My understanding is, it kept getting renewed as a “favor” to Disney.
Free the Mouse!!
The Disney CEO radicalized Mickey Mouse.
there will be some heavy shorting of this company very soon.
if you are invested even in portion from a mutual fund, it’s not going to be pretty
The late 19th century was the time when perverse ideas utterly exploded – Marxism, fascism, progressivism etc.
Why?, no one knows. The industrial revolution, the decline of Christianity, Darwinism etc. but perversity reigned.
A pseudo-scientific notion called pragmatism was championed by the philosopher William James (brother of the novelist Henry). When leftists call themselves pragmatic they are referring to this.
The premise is that nothing can be accepted at face value. All conventional wisdom must be challenged. Children do best raised by one father and one mother? Who says? Perhaps children do better raised by one mother, or two mothers or two fathers? Sound familiar? This is pragmatism, and it dates back all the way to the progressive dogmas of pragmatism and progressivism from the late 19th century.
On the long list of problems with this dogma is that leftists never accept when they are proven wrong. The experiment must never end. Undermining social norms is entirely the point, never just a side-effect.
The Disney executives who undertake this weird experiment will never stop. That is the point.
There are many parallels between the Industrial and Digital Revolutions. Among the most important are the impact- both good and bad- on society, the aggregation of political power, and an increase of influence over that power by special interests.
The internet is our railroad network, and information is our coal and oil.
The social conservatives like Mark Levin who think the American Constitution will somehow defeat such people are lazy, at best.
Leftists now believe the American Constitution is mostly the problem.
Since leftism blossomed in the late 19th century, how exactly do the ideas of the founding fathers negate them? Try harder, Mark.
Dumb and dumber is not just a movie any more, it’s a Disney business plan.
It is the book they all read :
Woke for Dummies !
Its a pop up picture book for better understanding.
LMFAO!!!!! Hahaha!
$46 BILLION reasons for the stockholders to file a class action against the management and board of directors !
In a just world the costs should come directly out of tbeir own pockets.
I haven’t stepped into a Target since they invited men into the women’s bathrooms. I haven’t watched so much as a down of football since the first time Kaepernick knelt. I haven’t gone to a movie, watched an awards show, bought a Coke product, or supported any business who has demonized me and my values. I have a very long memory, and Disney is dead to me.
Oh how I miss Cherry Garcia ice cream!
Oh well, we have Umpqua Oregon Dark Cherry where we live.
As well as other delightful flavors.
It isnt Cherry Garcia but its as good at better than half the price.
Amen and Amen!! We are far too quick to forgive and forget when corporations openly mock our values while still holding out their hand for our money! The minute enough of us simply say “NOPE, not another dime!” they will fold or they will go out of business…the solution is clear but it may not always be easy!
I neither forgive or forget those who are actively tearing down our country. I am encouraged by the fierce pushback that Disney is receiving. I pray it is the first domino.
Great reason for Middle America to give up saving for years to take the kids to Disney. Dollywood and Six Flags are a fraction of the cost.
Ditto! The moment USFL shows a BLM on the back of a helmet or elsewhere, or ANY player takes a knee for the National Anthem, it’s “Click” for me. Go Dawgs! Up until this season, college football is the only sports I watch.
Ivecome to watch Indian Cricket…..its as yet a sport unaffected by this madness.
Oh, and my three kids have NEVER had Disney in our house. Maleficent was a nasty feminist screed. Also, If I see a rainbow flag, I don’t shop there.
And I can keep this up indefinitely. I think it’s fun finding new alternatives to big corporations.
I dropped Oreos forever when they moved their manufacturing to Mexico.
Heck, I even dropped everything heinz so not to pay a partial penny for a pair of kerry’s socks. So I’m right there with you Enough.
There is a fiduciary responsibility running around in this entire fiasco which falls on the very people supporting Disney’s meddling in the sexual lives of children. When will the Directors act to fulfill their responsibilities to the stockholders? The world wonders.
Most common share stock holders are common, every day American type folk…unwashed masses…or a basket of deplorables clinging to their guns and bibles.
Given all the other pies that Disney has their fingers in, it will take an ongoing and dedicated “just say NO” type of movement.
The folks that really impact the fiduciary, don’t care…their clients are in private hedge funds where the minimum investment is may be a cool million.
What we need is a whistleblower to come forth and explain the mechanisms of how this sort of business and acumen, works. Fat chance as it is protected business plans or protected intellectual property.And non-disclosure agreements.
The shocking thing about that survey is that 32% are more likely, somewhat more likely or indifferent about supporting Disney exposing young childrem to sexual ideas. We’re talking k-3 grades. WTF is wrong with 1/3 of America? IMO, they or mentally and/or morally sick. It was not the best worded question, but still!
Well…. it’s a start.
I want to give a HUGE shout-out to Christopher Rufo for all of the hard work that he has done to bring this whole sordid story to light! He is a small, independent journalist/filmmaker who does outstanding work with very little financial backing from outside sources. If you are not currently supporting him, please consider becoming a patron and dropping $5 or $10 bucks to him on a monthly basis!

Well, the entire market has been down. Anyway, the board of directors and CEO can afford it. I hate this “Get woke, go broke”, because that’s not true of these massive media corporations. And because its a conservative cope, and excuse for doing nothing. We’ll just do nothing and the “Magic of the Free Market” will take care of it.
Thank God DeSantis didn’t think that way and took GOVERNMENT action to punish Disney. The next step is taking away their special Government granted 100 year old copyright on Micky Mouse and Donald Duck (among others).
The arrogance of these Disney Groomer executives is off the charts. Its none of their business how Florida teaches their kids, and for them to attack DeSantis on this issue is so peverse, I fully expect Disney to come out with a movie pushing Pedophilia. Anyway, these people need to be taught they don’t run our country.
Just wait. Probably feature-length cartoon version of Lolita!
In the movie Lolita was 16. In the book Lolita was 12, almost 13 when the pervert met her. And 13 when he kidnapped and raped her. If they do a re make; Lolita will be 5 years old and kidnap and rape the pervert.
I read that book when I was a teen and baby sitting. I never understood why it was published. It’s really disgusting.
We’re gonna teach kids about this, I don’t even know what pan sexual is . Gonna have to look that up 🧐🤔
Is that having sex with a pan 🤯
I guess it means if its living being of any gender identity its okay to have sex with it.
Being in FL., I know a LOT of people who have gone to Disney, both residents and out-of state folks..
While it’s true that there are greater numbers of adults in the groups that go, not one of them has ever gone unless the purpose was “taking the kids”.
IOW, parents Grandparents, aunts and uncles, older siblings, – they all go along to “have fun at Disney”.
But the only reason they decide to go in the 1st place is cuz “little Sarah and Davey” want to go.
For every little kid that doesn’t go to Disney, there are probably 3 or 4 older kids and adults that aren’t going either.
Almost 10% are more likely and a little over 22% it makes no difference.
There’s a lot of sick, disgusting people in this country.
Where’s the “No Effing Way” category??
Woke=Broke
Well, I can tell ya we wont be going broke on Disney vacations.
9.4% of respondents are MORE likely to go to Disney now that they know Disney is pushing sexual themes on children?!!!!! What sickness is this?
3-1
“As the mother [of] one transgender child and one pansexual child,” what that ‘minimum 50%’ is is nothing other exerting influence of millions of other children who do not any say in being exposed to it. The $46 billion in value loss speaks loudly.
The mother teaches Transgender Studies at a university!
Disney’s share price has been declining for some time, due to sector rotation and other factors. Same with other major growth and dividend companies, such as Starbucks.
10% are in support of??
So, 32% of sick people out there… must be the same 32% that approves of Joe Biden.
My husband and I decided to sell our Disney Vacation Club (time share via point system) We won’t be going back to the parks or cruising with Disney anymore. We are done with that nut-less rat.
Glad to see “wokeness” is having consequences.
That ought to be good for a new Board and Executive Management in the real world; in DreamWorld maybe not.
This Poll, like all of these is probably way understated, as I believe even more despise Groomers.
The company expanded rapidly in the last 15 years, purchasing both Marvel (4B USD) and LucasFilms (4B USD).
The film studios have been very profitable, but that is not likely to continue. Marvel likely peaked in 2019 with the final Avenger’s movie, and the next series of films are going to be carrying the box office albatross of identity politics. Star Wars movies have generally been profitable, but have not been well received by the fan base. Like Marvel, the Star Wars’ film universe has reached a dead end.
Marvel Comics is a disaster and identity politics has all but immolated the industry. The Star Wars toy lines and parks have under-performed.
Disney+ is not expected to begin making a profit until 2024, and is dependent on the weakening interest in Marvel and LucasFilm properties.
Disney owns the ratings black hole known as ESPN, a media dinosaur meandering under the growing shadow of a comet.
Disney Cruise Lines lost 256,000,000 USD in 2020.
The parks have swung back to profitability after massive losses during the height of the pandemic nonsense, but now there is inflation. Everything Disney produces is entertainment. Inflation will force families to prioritize more important purchases than Disney+ and vacations, a lesson which I believe NetFlix just learned.
Not a good time to be alienating two thirds of the population.
Oh, I see. She absolutely MUST move forward with the complete degeneracy of children. Well, NOT ON OUR WATCH.
I’d love to see millions of Patriots across the globe send all their Disney merchandising that they have purchased & collected over the years, to a third party who collects it and then compiles it all into a huge pile outside the gates of Disney and we turn it into one massive bonfire and burn it all.
Done with Disney should be the next chant.
Some fun news!
Duck Fisney.
Who in the h*ll answered “much more likely?!”
IKR?
