![Elizabeth Holmes: The 'Valley of Hype' behind the rise and fall of Theranos [documentary]](https://iml-jp.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Elizabeth-Holmes-The-Valley-of-Hype-behind-the-rise-and-fall-of-Theranos-documentary.jpg)
This is so stupid no company is building billion dollar office complex is nowadays. With the huge number of work from home employees as well as the tens of thousands of layoffs Disney is undergoing why on earth would they build such a thing anyway? Has nothing to do with the fight with Florida.
America’s Civil War never ended. America is in big trouble, or I should say the American people are in big trouble once Fascism takes over.
Go to California… You’re more than welcome there 😅
Watching Meatball Ron damage Floridas economy because of his insane culture wars is glorious
It will have no impact on Florida. People moving in so fast a house wont last a week on the market. And jobs are everywhere.
The should build in Portland Oregon… they need jobs there … and it aligns with their political views … win win for Disney
You guys sound so sad trying to defend this. Disney is a failing company
Disney cancelling project due to “New Leadership and changing business conditions”
How normal people interpret:
– New Leadership was Bob Iger replacing Bob Chapek, who consistently has been reversing his decisions
– Disney Stock is plummeting
– Disney+ is losing subscribers
– Multiple box office bombs (and some successes) suggest they are hemorrhaging money
How Allie Canal Finance Reporter interprets:
– Disney didn’t specifically Ron DeSantis was the reason for these plans, but basically it was Ron Desnatis’s fault
Come on Yahoo Finance… this is another prime example of why people distrust the media
big mouth
Good! Trying to make central Florida into San Francisco. Florida is fine without Disney’s offices
San Francisco levels of degradation would actually be a step up from Florida.
The 666 company.
Problem?
More likely part of corporate budget cuts
By the way the new mermaid movie… el chavo del 8 was in charge of the special effects
A new ceo has taken over Disney. This is why all these changes are happening.
What new CEO? Iger has been CEO since the early 2000s, goofy
@Chiquita ummmm no he was let go and someone else came in. Ruined Disney, And that person was let go. And they brought back the last guy. And he’s fixing it up. So yes a new person has taken over since who was in charge last time.
Making political hay out of scheduled massive job cuts due to bad product at the box office.
I’m surprised they just didn’t blame Trump. it 1seems the mantra for the woke.
It was because of DeSantis
@L. J. Except it wasn’t, Disney is bleeding money which is why they brought back their previous CEO
So you don’t care about the constitution and believe government should be able to punish companies for their speech. Weird admission, but OK.
@arthurneddysmith you are in a whole different conversation, what you replied makes zero sense. If you’re talking about DeSantis standing up for the attack on our kids, then you are part of the problem and has nothing to do with the constitution.
@arthurneddysmith So when it’s a Democrat-led government it’s ok to punish private companies but when a Republican-led government does it it’s bad. Got it.
DeSantis’ vindictive behavior toward a company voicing an opinion reminds me of how the CCP treats Chinese companies. This type of behavior should not be a part of American politics or economics, because we are a capitalist society with freedom of speech. DeSantis behaves not like an elected official and instead he acts more like authoritarian leaders like Putin and Xi. I have spent a lot of time in China, and our elected officials need to act in accordance with our traditions and way of life, instead of thinking they are a king or authoritarian ruler. DeSantis is acting unAmerican.
Hahahaha..Hahaha ha… stop all the crazy woke and weirdest, you; Disney: YOU!
Go work go broke, everything Disney is associated with in the past 5 years has pretty much been garbage!
That’s OK. Super Nintendo World will gladly take Disney’s customers.
Maybe disney could Iiquidate? That would be fine , employee camp😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆
I’m glad Disney did this. With Florida’s anti LGBT laws that is recently passed, it makes sense not to bring business into that state.
Lmfao has nothing to do with it they are going out of business faster than they thought.
@luvan 200 feet away?
And whether or not I support Disney has nothing to do with it. Just glad that that’s less money going into a bigoted state.
@Chris Quidlatcope harder as Florida is the #1 growing economy! Derp
RON DESANTOS WOULD MAKE A BAD POTUS, HE WOULD CUT OFF HIS NOSE TO SPITE HIS FACE. FIGHTING WITH A MOUSE. 😥
Whatever. Disney is losing a ton of money. Not building was a business move.
They should build in Portland Oregon, they could use those jobs a lot more than Florida
Florida needs no more new Disney development. As long as the company promotes transgenderism which is so out of place anywhere, it will continue to lose revenue.
Hey Disney, just close down all locations, no one wants your sole content anymore. Sell Star Wars to someone who can actually make good stuff with it first
I heard Disney updated their filing system to the new Pedo-file.
Louisiana wants disney
Disney needs to get out of Florida. The amount of money and tourism Florida would lose would be tremendous.
Great job Disney thats how you deal with racist states and governors who think that the 1950s was the greatest time in American history if businesses agree with these practices then the people who buy their products should stop supporting them 😊
They are relocating to the abyss
Move to Michigan Dis
To many people in Florida now won’t make a differenca
So cuts are in California and Florida and its all DeSantis. Not the economy or their political demise for scheduled massive job cuts due to bad products.
Go woke go broke! 😂😂😂
Disney has to wait a year to Sanchez will no longer be governor
This is because Disney is bleeding money. The feud between DeSantis is just an excuse.
Propaganda to discredit DeSantis , they went woke now going broke.
Good Disney can fail for all I care !
Yeah, I bet Disney was going to do this. The only way they do something is to make millions.
I was going to try to go to Disney world for a day but i wasn’t approved for financing.
Disney had their worst earnings year in more than 60 years. Sounds like they’re still making bad decisions.
Go Woke… Go Broke !! That’ll teach em for trying to indoctrinate our children.
Desantis sure knows how to lose jobs! I can’t wait to see how he will lose jobs nationwide 😂😂😂
Yahoo propaganda BS. This didn’t have anything to do with the legal situation. It was a business decision. Don’t believe Yahoo Finance’s lies.
They’re posing. Disney has been losing billions and they were going to scrap the project anyway. Blaming De Santis is disingenuous.
I don’t know where you get that misinformation from. Disney had a net profit of over 1.2 billion in the first quarter alone.
Go woke, go broke! Walt would be rolling in his grave if he knew how his company is being ran.
If it’s all DeSantis fault why don’t they build in California at Disneyland? They can choose from other blue states. We all know this is bull crap
Not looking great for the mouse. Disney is a lawsuit with its share holders, Star Wars galactic resort is getting shut down after only a year, Indy 5 reviews is it’s a turd.
They should move it to California . That way they can add a homeless ride. You get in a tent and try to dodge the poop piles.
So move to a Higher Taxed state. Brilliant. Why don’t they move to California?
It’s because now they have to pay taxes like everyone else.
What other widely beloved things can DeSantis declare war on? Pizza? The Beatles? Tom Hanks?
Just because you belove abusing children doesnt mean it should be acceptable
They scraped that project years ago, you are late to the party, you are just stirring up BS.
Yall worship ron desantis? That’s weird
How many conservatives out there now believe that a government should be able to punish companies for their speech? I guess all of them. They just make excuses for it.
2000 minimum wage jobs lost. Nobody noticed.
Disneys whole company is unraveling, boot Iger
Their failure is their own. They’ve made bad choices and are paying for it. It has nothing to do with DeSantis.
Florida Attractions
“White World” and “Bigotry Land”
The happy places for “White Fright” folk. Open-carry guns encouraged. Culling the herd is God’s way of saying, “bring ‘em on home to Jesus!”
Go Governor.
The “scrap” was decided long before DeSantis & Iger feud … as well as major Disney layoffs was decided by fired Disney CEO Chapnek. California employees didn’t want to relocate to Florida. Stop blaming the Governor!
Most of Disney’s financial troubles are connected to Bob Iger’s buying spree; for almost 18 years, he’s been buying other IPs and milking them dry. For example, how many people remember Paramount, not Disney, created the MCU? Legit financial outlets should be ashamed of themselves for parroting this PR/Marketing spin about Desantis when everyone knows Disney can’t afford to build that campus anyway.
I’m a resident of Florida and feel we do not need more development or money from Disney.
Walt is spinning in his grave.
Disney is about to scrape Florida all together
Cry me a river
They lost billions last year. But they’re using it as a political statement. They just lost too much money.
Saving money to bid high for NBA rights deal in a bidding war against Amazon, TNT & Apple.
Chapnek can’t run sqaut had to call old guy back.
Disney is the one that decided to go woke. Bud Light hadto learn their lesson too. CEO’s should take notice.
Disney is a woke organization, now specializing in racial Marxism and post-modern rejection of Western Civilization’s core values. May you receive the same response as Bud Lite.
Disney has lost money in the past year. They closed the 1 billion dollar Star Wars hotel, laid off thousands of workers and lost hundreds of millions of dollars on crap films. Also lost 4 million subscribers to Disney channel. This has nothing to do with DeSantis.!
I had a dream that central florida turned into a slum…
It will when Disney has enough of the bullshit from Florida and desatan and relocates to a sane state.
@Darrell Cook I’m not kidding, I really dreamt it. Makes sense when the south tries to go back 100 years socially, it will drive off innovation and companies, military, green technology will flee. Young people are usually not socially conservative.
Bad management is the bottom line.
Yea, Governor management for state is horrible.
That’s okay. You can keep the headquarters in woke,over priced California.
If Walter Disney still was around would been pretty pissed. And again Bob Iger not doing too good if a job… They whining about De Santis and no possibility if new business but… They just fired or let go of 7000emoloyees.. so quit blaming the Flo Gov .. get your facts straight…. 👀👇💰😖🤦🤪
Disney is
pro-groomer
Florida is sinking……
I for one don’t really care much about what Disney does.
Who cares about Disney, they have run Florida long enough
Disney was cutting back before santos
Good news because that prevents Disney from grooming more children
As the saying goes “Go woke go broke”
Yea, like Stop the Steal. 😂😂
Everybody already knows if you go woke you go broke why are people so upset this is going to happen to a lot of companies big or small doesn’t matter hahaha
too funny Disney is totally crippled by this feud going toe to toe with Desantis was a terrible choice they went woke and as with so many others they are broke
So now fewer crap jobs in Florida!
GREAT NEWS!! GO DESANTIS
Bye bye desantis ….
Its Ok
You still think you are BETTER THAN ME
So glad Disney isn’t building that complex. They have already distorted central Florida and had their own special “country with self-rule” right in the middle of a State in the country of The United States of America. Crack down on the Mouse and all his wokeness – Disney sucks!!!!
As a person who hates Florida, I am very pleased by this Desanta fellow.
🎉🎉🎉
DeSantis is the convenient excuse disney can use to deflect from their pathetic business practices.
Disney needs to go under anyway. They’ve become nasty with their views and I won’t let my kids watch anything Disney.
Good, we have enough good people living in Florida, move somewhere else, 2,000 jobs is nothing compared to the money we make with visitors on vacation…
Go woke go broke
GOOD GET OUT OF FLIRIDA
Disney should purchase Epstein Island. They have a solid history and tradition of exploiting children.
Get woke, go broke.
DeSantis showing a lack of good judgement with his recent comments. Would have been better just to not say anything. I have real concerns about his leadership skills.
Disney will change their name to “Woke Pedo Land”.
