"Non-C suite Disney executives" like whom? Why would their opinions matter?

The WDW site has five initials, the last two being NT. It says that Disney stock is tanking. That is no laughing matter at all.

A) They aren't affiliated with Disney at all
B) That's literally the Fox News of Disney parks fandom. They always sneak an agenda in their "reports".

…I totally see what you did there…Maybe Meta will buy Disney like AOL bought Time Warner.

I don't think it's fair to attack the messenger if they're following what the stock report says.

I find stock tanking always hilarious unless it’s due to some sort of “act of god” scenario.
There’s supposed to be risk…and they have spun a web of cotton candy around themselves from soho down to the battery thinking that there can never be lulls.

I hope the OP poster dumped those 2020 shares…by the way 
And you repeat their unfounded claim that...
"and now even business analysts are demanding that Bob Chapek be removed."
What business analysts? Who are they quoting?
Please list the more that one (plural was used) "business analysts" who are "demanding that Bob Chapek be removed."
Yes it is if the messenger is amplifying fake news because they're accepting something at face value.

It's Jim Cramer of CNBC reacting to the disappointing Q4 earnings.

A clown…
But to be fair: is it crazy that investors are grumbling about him? There were legit reports of that last year.
And it may not ALL be Iger plants.
It’s reasonable that people might want him out. They are getting crushed.
And why are we having a tennis match about this?
We all agree chapek sucks and we want something else? Correct?
Just because he wears a name tag doesn’t mean we have to put our shield in front of him as the arrows fly
So, it wasn't "analysts" but one "analyst." That significantly changes the tenor of the story.
And, I don't fault anyone for not knowing how awful an analyst Cramer is. He's popular because of his on air antics. But his analysis of the economy and stocks has been more wrong than right. And firing Chapek would change nothing. The Board would want the new CEO to keep doing the things they already approved of.

Block investors can fire parts of the board too…So, it wasn't "analysts" but one "analyst." That significantly changes the tenor of the story.

Then perhaps it's the Board of Directors who should be fired.

It shouldn’t be a puppet board pushed by anyone named “Bob”…for sure

I believe the Board is the one with the power to vote Bob out. He works for them, not the other way around.

…they’re all a bunch of tools. The moment that became apparent was when Arnold could have established an “independent” board…
But fell in line with cue ball for what might have been simply for a little stock bump/options scheme.
Iger was looming as an influence spectre at that moment…they had a place to retreat to. But nothing instead
