8. What Impact - If Any - Does This Crap Going On In FL - Have On Disney?.....

Wed Feb 23, 2022, 11:35 AM

Feb 2022

Disney is a big player in FL. Given all the crap going on in that State by DeSantis & the Repug legislature - I would think that at some point that the Disney people would be nervous as to the impact it may have at Disney World.

I keep hearing of people saying that they will not travel to FL and will stay away.

That's got to have some impact on the revenues at the Disney properties as well as all the other entertainment venues in the Orlando area and around the State.

Has Disney applied any of their pressure on this situation?
