I wondered that as well I was going to see if Comcast's meeting was somewhere to see whether she is just a"character" who does this everywhere.

Interesting - do you think they are trying to get people to change their No votes Hmm three supportive people in a row. Interesting that all do not feel airing "laundry" is a good thing. Hey a DVC person now! The comment about the calling orders from the castle from the previous person was...

This is when I wish I could see the presentation Eisner actually handled her well.

I thought I read 4 hours I thought I read 4 hours before I connected to the audio webcast. p.s. George Mitchel is speaking now (discussing governance changes director numbers, independence, diversity and unification of committment of board) and implying changes came from within and not New...

In Comcast Section of Philly Inquiry/Daily News Thought pop culture article and Eisner was interesting

I've been looking at news on the earlier press conference today and the rally going on now. (Nothing we haven't read previously) This is some feedback from the local Philly papers and news - have not seen any video yet. I am always interested in local news vs. national when it's in their...

Don't hate Eisner and am not naive about Disney I appreciate your comments - I don't personally agree (except perhaps with the fact that Eisner may stay until the end of his contract - I'd imagine he'll fight for that plus more). I don't hate Eisner, have never been a CM, however I am a...

Transcript on his love of his job was interesting to me for what it did not say. Not once does he talk about people - it's all about the perks and the interaction with these incredible creative, dynamic people aren't considered perks evidently? When he said that I never thought he was plugging...

Muppet Comment That was also masterful. He implied that the only reason the Muppet deal fell through (the first time) was due to taxes??!! Hello?!

Overcharging and Larry trying to help This was the funniest /best part of the whole interview. Larry trying to add to the kindler,gentler, warm fuzzy .you didn't count change properly and lost money buddy? I laughed out loud when Eisner said "just the opposite" or whatever he said. Now that...

In a nutshell I think that was his objective and Larry King gave him the forum to do so.

Was that an interview or a commercial? Absolutely easy to sell oneself if you know everything will be fluff. I was very disappointed with the interview but let's be honest did you honestly expect larry King to hit him with difficult questions - well okay maybe we thought maybe hence the wasted...

Board Accountability I am by no means an Eisner fan as I personally feel his ego has overtaken his business focus and duty as CEO. This bonus didn't make me as angry at Eisner as it made me wonder what the heck is going on in the boardroom. What upset me was board approval not his taking it...

Good point - Stockholder here (wish I was a major one) and I'm looking at my long term investment. Dividend payouts were this week and I'd like to enjoy that for a long time. From a financial view I still (and I've tried), can not get my arms/brain around ABC and what that purchase has done...

Perhaps this is another reason Roy Disney and Michael Eisner did not see eye to eye. I always wonder who is their target audience- do they ever ask real consumers or is it their finance people alone? Scaling back a product and it's quality and presuming that the consumer is too clueless to...

Will we have this same discussion in 5 years for Test Track? I've enjoyed reading this thread. I do remember the good ol' days (said tongue in cheek - I'm not that old). I remember WoL, WoM, Horizons. I personally loved Horizons - yup I also love CoP. It's how they made me feel - the...

:cry: I am sad about the other news especially since I missed Food Rocks when we were last there. However the sour mickey gummy's are a real bummer. It's bad enough I can't always find sour skittles!

miceage has the resignation letter of Gold Stanley Gold's resignation letter I found the following letter closing very interesting as it is a "recent" policy re not communicating with people. Also I was curious by the specific reg rules that the letters be made public on his and Roy's...

Stanley Gold quote in Fox report interesting that Gold is quoted as I just posted on Rumours section that he just resigned from the board.
