I'm gonna throw in a couple points about the "Blondie Situation." (Since I'm posting from my phone, I'm not going to go back and quote a bunch of stuff.)
Imagine a guy who wants to be a baseball coach at an major college.
On his resume, he indicates that he spent two years with the Seattle Mariners organization, when in fact he only spent two seasons riding the bench for the Jackson Generals, Seattle's Double-A team in Tennessee.
You can make a case that he didn't outright "lie", since there is a business connection between the two teams. However, his statement was used to intentionally present a misleading image of himself to his prospective employers and the outside world.
This, if discovered, should certainly cause the school to seriously rethink hiring him, or if caught in time, to toss his resume in the trash.
Now, while to an average person on the street it may seem like nothing, a little fudging to improve this guy's image, to people in the actual sports world (especially players) it is a tremendous breach of ethics. You don't lie about who you play for to other athletes and not expect them to be highly offended
.
By the same token, journalists and media professionals are similarly offended by such behavior in their world. It just isn't ok, and may for some reach the level of outrage.
It is also a media and journalism no-no to work in a public relations position while also holding a position with a news-gathering organization. It just isn't done.
What will come of all of this? Don't know.
Disney (Burbank) is aware of it now, as is The Times. It's up to them.
On the subject of agendas (again...), I have one, 74 has one...almost everyone does. Some of us have stated that we are unhappy with how the Disney Social Media department works, and would like to see some wholesale changes made. No secret there.
In the immortal words of Nicholson's Joker, "This town needs an enema!"
I am trying to be optomistic about this as I have always wanted this concept to become a reality, but my expectations at this point would be that DHS gets a watered down/half &$$ version of this ride to go along with an exit merchandise shop and themed bathrooms or a Monstropolis themed snack cart. My best guess is that it will be a D-Ticket but they'll pep it up as if it were going to be an E-Ticket. Pretty much like what they're doing for SDMT.
