Is it just me, or does it seem to anyone that ABC is draining the lifeblood out of Walt Disney's dream.
ABC is in deep financial trouble right now. Meanwhile, Disney keeps sinking profits that come from the "Disney" brand into ABC to try and prop it up and keep it alive.
I believe that money made from the "Disney" brand should STAY within the "Disney" brand and that side of the company. It should NOT cross over to ABC. If ABC can't survive on it's own merrit, it needs to be sold.
Could you imagine how nice the parks would be today if the profits they generated were invested BACK into the parks?
Instead, the "Disney" brand is being forced to lug around this GIANT dying TV company on it's back. This gorilla weighs a TON and is really hurting Disney.
Everything Walt built, had something "magical" to it. Where is the "magic" in anything ABC? (I don't mind ESPN so much. At least it carries it's own weight and it not a real burden.)
The "Disney" brand is a VERY strong one. But this name has been leveraged far too much and spread too thin in recent years. The brand is NOT all powerfull and indestructable. (Some executive board members seem to throw it around like it is.)
I say cut the dead weight and let the company RUN agian. I'm sick and tired of seeing it "crawl" for no reason. ( executive greed?? )
CT : - )
Peter Jennings should end every nightly news broadcast with: "Thank you Disney park goers for making my paychecks possible."
