Good to hear from a long--what's your primary expectation for better Disney performance? That is, what do you consider to be the bright spot for Disney?

I thought that lawsuit about the costumes was funny too. Disney employees I've known liked their jobs ("pixie dusted" as they call it), but I have to say I don't know a single castmember who wore a costume (outside of retail outfits).

Here's some more "negative" news with regard to advertising rates going down for TV
dailynews.yahoo.com
ABC, a unit of The Walt Disney Co. (NYSE:DIS - news), suffered a 20 percent drop in its 18-to 49-year-old viewership last season.

Disney has so many assets it's hard to keep track, but I don't see too many of them doing well. None the less, many are still bullish:

Walt Disney Remains Strong, Despite Stumbles at New Theme Park and Box Office, Analysts Say

Of course, I'd say this too if I already owned a million shares. :-)

Here's a surprising fair (neutral) article about Disney from CBS

Most of these things are cross-posted on Yahoo, but this one wasn't.

Regards,

Steve
