2013 Shareholders Meeting: Game Thread

[DocMcHulk]

I'm a Cubs fan. I'm conditioned to root for losers.

I'm a White Sox fan

 

[RSoxNo1]

Jane Garcia sounds very positive...

Praising Iger for the diversity on the BOD and within the Disney company

 

[flynnibus]

Trotting out the 'Disney' family trophy...

 

[RSoxNo1]

Roy P Disney talking about history of the company and how it was started by two brothers that could only afford dinner every 3rd night.

 

[dagobert]

What position does Roy P. Disney hold in the company? Is he involved in management? Does he have stocks in Disney?

 

[TalkingHead]

ESPN isn't liberal, it's just sports-themed tabloid gossip for men.

 

[flynnibus]

ha.. nice slip there Iger... 'Thank you Walt.. er Roy'

What a kiss-up message.

 

[WDW1974]

Trotting out the 'Disney' family trophy...

You always need one Disney to make folks believe everything is fine.

I'd have preferred someone from Walt's side of the family.

 

[DocMcHulk]

ESPN isn't liberal, it's just sports-themed tabloid gossip for men.

BINGO!

 

[RSoxNo1]

Dwight is back...

 

[flynnibus]

ugh.. pin collector... get ready to cringe..

 

[TalkingHead]

Oh, God, this guy visits the parks every week. Wonder how off he is.

 

[asianway]

Dwight is back...

No hope for humanity...

 

[RSoxNo1]

Complaining that pins aren't made in America.

 

[George]

Making pins in America? I would've never guessed.

 

[WDW1974]

Really?!?!?!?

A pin collector?!?!??!

Someone just shoot him ... wait, he sorta has a good underlying point!

 

[TalkingHead]

Well, oh my gosh, this guy is the main event. Why can't we make more Disney crap in America?!

 

[DocMcHulk]

Apparently there is concern about movie production being moved to India. ugh

Ok, the question was pretty mangled, but I like the concern about "made in America"

 

[RSoxNo1]

Iger is talking about how most products are done through 3rd party companies and it's up to them, but did say that they are looking to increase manufacturing in the US

 

[asianway]

Really?!?!?!?

A pin collector?!?!??!

Someone just shoot him ... wait, he sorta has a good underlying point!

A little - but a better question is why Disney does nothing to protect their IP whether it be counterfeit merch or bloggers.
