Disney’s Bob Iger Joins the Camp of Wanting the Strikes to End ‘Quickly’

After 100 days of the writers ’ hit , and nearly a calendar month of the actors ’ strike , Disney has realized it needswriters and thespian to celebrate the caller ’s 100 years , which were made possible by those very artists .

During theDisney Company ’s quarterly lucre call on Wednesday , CEO Bob Iger seems to finally be singing a different line from theposition he took just a month ago . “ It is my fervent Bob Hope that we quickly find solutions to the issues that have stay fresh us apart these past few month , ” Iger was quoted inDeadlineas saying in reference to the WGA and SAG - AFTRA strikes . “ And I am personally confide to achieve this result . ” Great , so hopefully that think of commitment to search within those deep pockets White House have thanks to their exorbitant salaries — which could equate a livable income to a wide of the mark percentage of employees with more than enough left over to still be stinkin ’ rich .

Iger go on to affirm his alteration of conscience : “ Nothing is more important to this caller than its family relationship with the originative residential district — that include actors , writers , animators , director , and producer . I have abstruse respectfulness and appreciation for all those who are life-sustaining to the extraordinary creative railway locomotive that drives this company and our diligence . ” esteem is a big Bible the like of Iger should really tend into with introspection , as writer and actors feel their work and indistinguishability scupper by the rise of AI technical school which could pass over out vital lines of work .

The divide between long - terminal figure financial security and being out on the street after a health scare or unexpected loss of income has seldom feel more tenuous , and no one is feeling these 100 days more than the striking worker who are out in the sun picketing . Hopefully Iger means what he enjoin , and other Hollywood execs will agree it ’s time to open those checkbooks and bless bonny agreements with the WGA and SAG - AFTRA . It ’s time for Disney to get back to the real fight — squaring off with Governor DeSantis in Florida , whose threat to education and equality demand to be squashed down before it continues to spread outside of Florida — and do right by the originative people who help oneself the House of Mouse achieve 100 geezerhood in the first place .
