The Dead Disney Brand and the Return of Bad News Bob Iger
Disney is a childhood staple for many of us. It reminds us of the magic we felt when were children. As of late, there have been valid complaints and criticisms about how the company has been run under Bob Chapek, with the raising of park prices and the cutting of benefits to guests within the parks. Bob Chapek has been a terrible CEO. He’s a Bad News Bob.

There is rejoicing in the streets from Disney fans who claim the man will usher in a new golden age for Disney. To be honest, I’m not that optimistic, and I’m befuddled over the lavish praise people heap on Iger. Though Chapek was a terrible CEO, Iger wasn’t much better. In fact, he started many of the companies problems. As far as I’m concerned, he’s the man who murdered the Disney brand. He’s another Bad News Bob.
