He became president of the home entertainment division in July of 2006. Prior to that, he was a marketing director for that sector.
Then Iger approved Mars Needs Moms and similar situations, so I think it is clear who had a better palate for art.

Eisner approved the plethora of Direct to Video Disney sequels, so both are at fault for greenlighting some bad projects.

How do we explain the first mountain in New Orleans?
You can check back in the thread for the previous hundred times that's been brought up.
'though never explained.
Personally I don't know if Mama Odie's enchantment is powerful enough to pull it off so I can only naturally assume that Disney has somehow perfected the Stilinski tech from "Honey, I Shrunk the Kids" and we'll somehow be shrink-rayed in the queue. It's from this frog-sized perspective where it starts to make sense.

Yeah, I'll just go thru over 300 pages.
Talking about scale, I'm still waiting for an explanation of how a hill can be called a mountain. Or how being thrown into a briar patch is thematically represented by a 50 foot drop on a water slide. Was B'rer Rabbit thrown 50 feet into the air first before landing in the patch? By way of a water sluice?

Disney's gonna do what Disney's gonna do. I just hope its not closed for three years to do it......
OK. I'll give you that one.
This is actually explained in original queue work, and railroad narratives and signage of the station. The ride's opening scene after you see(and when working) hear Brer Frog you see Rocketry Racoon's still just across from the critter elixer wagon to explain why the old hill and mines are flooded.

I mean, this does keep getting delayed for WDW. Maybe it will get delayed so long that they forget to do it. Or we get a new CEO. There are certainly discussions over appropriate timing for the work. It kind of needs to be next year to reopen with Epic Universe. So if it is delayed again, I suspect it will just be canceled for WDW.
DLR has no such luck.

There is no cancellation in the works, it's just going to take a long time:
Melissa Valiquette, vice president of Magic Kingdom Park at Walt Disney World in Florida, told the Orlando Sentinel replacing the ride was a “lengthy process” and was “going to take some time.”
“Sometimes decisions can be made many, many months, even years” about an attraction being replaced before the new attraction is open to the public, Valiquette said, and “it’s going to take us a little bit of time to reimagine Splash Mountain.”
Valiquette did not say when Splash Mountain would close to start construction on the new attraction, and Disney has not yet responded to a request for comment on the timeline.

Considering he only responds to meme and say "no" to everyone else?
Yes.

Forbes needed something to catch people's eyes to have them actually read the article. Most people don't care about a ride retheming project. Now say the ride is racist and you'll get curiosity clicks from people who normally wouldn't care.

They were building the Main Street Theater until they weren’t. I will accept it is happening when the existing ride closes.There is no cancellation in the works, it's just going to take a long time:
