   How's that LGBT 'Storytelling' working out for the bottom line, Bob?

   Bob Iger, the newly appointed CEO of Disney, pledged to double down on   
   LGBT “storytelling” in the company’s animated kids’ movies during a Monday   
   town hall with employees, according to The New York Times.   
      
   Iger served as CEO for 15 years before retiring in late 2020; he was   
   brought back in about a year later after his successor, Bob Chapek, was   
   fired, according to the NYT. Tumbling stock prices marked Chapek’s tenure   
   as CEO, as did public outrage over the company’s political engagement in   
   Florida and its alleged efforts to inject sexual content into children’s   
   shows, particularly through gay and transgender characters.   
      
   An employee at the town hall asked Iger about the company’s commitment to   
   LGBT storytelling in the future, and he responded affirmatively.   
      
   “One of the core values of our storytelling is inclusion and acceptance   
   and tolerance, and we can’t lose that,” Iger said, according to the NYT.   
   “We’re not going to make everyone happy all the time, and we’re not going   
   to try to … We’re certainly not going to lessen our core values in order   
   to make everyone happy all the time.”   
      
   The company initially found itself in hot water after coming out against   
   Florida’s Parental Rights in Education bill following a media pressure   
   campaign urging Disney to do so; the legislation bans classroom   
   instruction on gender identity and sexual orientation in kindergarten   
   through third grade. Soon after, Republican Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis   
   signed a law eliminating Disney’s Reedy Creek Improvement District, ending   
   special administrative and tax privileges the company had enjoyed since   
   1967.   
      
   Disney then stepped away from politics and quietly removed itself from the   
   fight with DeSantis in an effort to preserve its special tax district.   
      
   The company also came under fire after videos leaked by Manhattan   
   Institute senior fellow Christopher Rufo appeared to reveal internal   
   meetings with executives in which employees boasted about their plans to   
   inject sexual content into children’s shows, with an executive producer   
   allegedly thanking the company’s leadership for being very welcoming of   
   her “not-at-all-secret gay agenda.”   
      
   Disney recently released its first movie with a gay lead character,   
   “Strange World,” which had a budget of $180 million and only brought in   
   $18.6 million by Thanksgiving weekend.   
      
   Disney did not respond to the Daily Caller News Foundation’s request for   
   comment.
