| Americans Put the Holiday Hurt on Disney, Target, Others as Boycotts Bleed into Christmas |
| by Suzanne Bowdey |
| When Disney CEO Bob Iger sat down to talk with employees about his bumpy year at the helm Tuesday, he said, "I knew there were myriad challenges that I would face." What he didn't count on was those "myriad challenges" being millions of still-angry Americans. After management ran the brand into the ground over a popular parental rights' law last year, nothing seems to be rehabilitating the company's image. Even the second coming of Iger, who was behind the wheel for some of Disney's best chapters, hasn't brought back the magic for consumers. Now, staring down a holiday season with crashing stocks, box office losers, and even less goodwill, will Iger stop riding this polarized express? |

Instead, he ad-libbed, "as - I think it was - President Reagan said, 'We're from the government; we're here to help.'" He said it earnestly. The quotation was nearly verbatim, yet totally mistaken. |
