Just curious - do you all keep up to date with the executive management of the company, or do you just read parks news?

Do you "follow" the Disney company?

certainly do... it's hard to separate the magic from reality.
As a profitable corporation they do many, many things that upset me but are great for the bottom line : Marvel.
I can't stand the marriage of Disney and Marvel. Independent from each other, they are great but when combined its a train wreck for me. A great cash cow for sure, but the Marvel line couldn't be anything further from what Disney represents.
I follow park management very little. I would put myself 1 tick above complete apathy on the subject.
From a professional standpoint I have to follow Disney's booking policies, entertainment offerings, dining, etc. My real passion is with the parks and their construction and operation.

I just recently signed up for twitter, and was hoping you could share some good ones to follow? Including KK?

I think if you do a search for "Twitter" in these boards you'll find a few threads on this topic. But to get you started...

Yup, I would say I follow the company fairly closely. I am interested in how they make decisions and what opportunities they come across. Also, as I'm sure many other people on here are, I am a stockholder so of course I have that interest too. I must say that specific news about WDW is most enjoyable to me though, it being the part of Disney I most frequent besides the movies.

Yes I follow them closely. Even look at those annual 10-K reports to the SEC.

My interest is the parks. I have no interest in the Disney company except when relevant to the parks.
Which is quite often though. One can not understand the funtioning of the parks and resorts without some understanding of the company at large.
