DeSantis battle is 'helping Disney': Former Disney Executive

#DeSantis #youtube #disney This segment originally aired on May 2, 2023. The drawn-out fight of Disney (DIS) versus Governor Ron DeSantis continues to escalate. The Board overseeing Disney’s special taxing district, is suing the entertainment giant. This comes a week after Disney filed a lawsuit against Gov. DeSantis to stop punishing the company for Disney’s protected speech. Yahoo Finance’s Seana Smith and Alexandra Canal spoke Lee Cockerell, Former Executive Vice President of Operations for the Walt Disney World Resort, about how the battle is impacting Disney. Cockerell said, “With everything I’m seeing, it’s helping Disney.” The former executive believes that people aren’t even thinking about it as much as it’s talked about in the media and Disney won’t see “any impact on the attendance of the parks.” See the full interview here.
