According to a recent NBC poll, the Walt Disney Company’s net favorability rating has dropped a massive 53 points to a dismal +3 in only a year. According to the survey, only 33% of people polled had a favorable impression of Disney, while 30% had a very poor opinion of the firm, according to NBC.
By comparison, Florida Governor DeSantis has a positive rating of 28% and a negative rating of 26%. But comparing Walt Disney, a well-known brand around the world, to a state politician is really an apples to oranges comparison since an entertainment company like Disney should never want to be compared to a politician, or even to poll as poorly as politicians typically poll.
And yet, some pro-Disney media outlets appear to be trying to call this a “win” for Disney to be polling slightly better than the governor of Florida. Talk about “fake news.”
Disney has made no secret of its support for trans-activism and its crusade to indoctrinate children with pro-LGBTQ+ content, and now it is finally paying a high price for it. The company’s stock value, much like its once beloved brand, has plummeted from $156 a year ago to just $104 yesterday.
Walt Disney Company has gone “woke” and it shows. If CEO Bob Chapek can’t steer the company towards a major course correction soon, this bloodbath is only going to get worse.

Screw Disney and everything associated.
Disney hurt itself for sure. Still people if all political stripes go to Orlando daily. Yes the stock is down but so is vertically every stock is right now. If only Disney stock fell, a point could have been made. Both Disney and DeSantis will survive this.
They know towed to China before that, and before that did not display Jerusalem as Israel’s capital in one of their entertainment...
Pluto is queer
Disney had a special responsibility to not screw around with children. It has failed miserably.
And yet Disney just can’t stop digging the hole deeper and deeper.
Mickey isn’t a mouse, HE’S A ‘RAT.
They are probably still doing well thanks to the Marvel and Star Wars acquisitions.
Over the long term, Disney’s decline in public favor will cost the company billions of dollars in revenue. Previously, Disney stock tended to hold value in recessions because people continued to spend money on their kids and entertainment even when other household expenses had to to be cut back.
My adult granddaughter bought Disney stuff for her 4 kids like nothing I had ever seen before. Then Chris Ruffo and others started revealing the perverse perverted attitudes of the executives now there’s not a hint of any thing Disney in her house and she wrote a scathing letter to Disney as she canceled her streaming service!
Don’t piss of momma bears, not a good thing to do, EVER.
bttt
That's why the lunatics at Disney have zero regard for stocks, liquidity, customers, children, etc.
Thus endeth the lesson.
Excellent news.
