Those weren't concerns the day before and they were suddenly concerns the day after?
No. The reasons are clear as provided by Disney themselves.

As I said in an earlier post your idea of how Disney calculates profit is not the same as how Disney actually does it.
Of course he does. We saw it in action last week, when he sent his henchman to threaten ABC causing Disney to pull the plug in haste.
If they needed to assuage the audience they would have stuck to their decision and would have said so in their statement.
I really hate to make assumptions about somebody I have never met, but I'm going to to guess that you never lived under authoritarian rule. So with all due respect, your opinion on comparing Trump to somebody like Mao, Xi, Putin, the Kims means absolutely...
If you read my post, I want strong opposition to whatever party is in power. As a matter of fact, when Biden said he would defend Taiwan on 3 separate occasions - I applauded that (even if he had no idea what he was saying.) When Pelosi visited Tibet and Taiwan, I applauded that. When I heard Pelosi visited Tiananmen Square in 1991, I admired that very much.
What happened to Jimmy Kimmel is not even close to censorship that occurs in China. Kimmel still had rights to freely to speak his mind while he was suspended. Again I will remind you.
Real censorship
Fake censorship...
Come to think of it...240k median views on Kimmels' youtube video is actually pretty pathetic given his salary, he employs over 200+ employees and who knows what the total cost it is to produce one show. Several podcasters do that with a fraction of the budget.
He doesn't, because if he did then Kimmel would have been out of a job permanently (at least at ABC)
This aged well...Here’s the inconvenient truth, honeybun: your cult owns the lion’s share of political violence in the US. But hey, don’t let boring ol’ data get in the way of your bedtime story where every lefty is a secret assassin. Projection really is your cult's love language.

Sorry in advance for being an asshole about it but you guys just keep harping on about shit that you have no fucking clue about and obviously don't care to learn about before you spout off.
See what I mean? You guys don't even have a fucking clue about the underlying issues that this is all about. Nor do you read anything before you post to shoot off your opinions as faccts and insightful commentary. I've already explained the law in which the FCC has rules that limit the corporate ownership of local TV broadcasting rights to 39%. The Nexstar/Tenga deal would result in an 80% ownership. Far in excess of the regulations.
And being ignorant of those laws, you then proceed to hold forth on the thoughts and feelings of US citizens in towns and cities you have no experience in even so much as visiting. You just lump them all as blue or red, right or left. And then go on to impute motives and actions based on your personally biased prejudiced opinions. (I say ignorant because I have already mansplained this to you guys several times in this thread... so you have been able to read them)
Here you go.. Now you can't ignore the underlying legal implications of not currying favour with the Trump administration.
"AI Overview
Nexstar's acquisition of Tegna is currently prohibited by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) because it would exceed the national broadcast ownership cap, which limits a single company to reaching 39% of U.S. households.
To proceed, the merger would likely require the FCC to grant a waiver or significantly increase this national cap.
However, the FCC has recently solicited comments to potentially reform the rules to allow for large media mergers like this one, which suggests the rules could change.
The National Ownership Cap
- The FCC's national ownership cap sets a limit on the percentage of U.S. households a single broadcast company is allowed to reach.
- Currently, this cap is set at 39%.
- The Nexstar-Tegna merger would result in Nexstar reaching approximately 80% of U.S. households, far exceeding the current 39% limit.
- For the Nexstar-Tegna deal to move forward, the FCC would need to approve a waiver or change the existing rules.
- The FCC has already taken steps, such as issuing a "notice of inquiry" and soliciting comments, to gather information and explore potential changes to media ownership rules.
- These actions suggest a willingness to modernize and accommodate large-scale mergers in the current environment.
- The outcome of the FCC's review will be crucial for the proposed Nexstar-Tegna merger.
- The companies' ability to gain an FCC waiver or for the national cap to be increased will determine if the deal can proceed. "
So views aren't a driver of market share which is as driver of stock prices? Revenues aren't a driver of stock prices? Companies aren't in business to make money???
Id hate to be an investor in your business if you dont think driving revenue is a priority

Shlong, Wyatt is very sensitive and is going to be hurt. Prezteling is a hard shtick to pull off without crumbling at the wrong time. Cut him some slack. I can't even drop the fella a
without getting lectured, dammit.
He would have been out of a job permanently if not for the backlash that Trump miscalculated.
Now Trump is losing his marbles and saying he will sue ABC and musing how much more money he will get out of them.
I think it's aged perfectly fine, like a fine California wine. GAVIN 2028This aged well...

Analysis: What data shows about political extremist violence
Policymakers and the public need reliable evidence and actual data to understand the reality of politically motivated violence.

Right-wing extremist violence has been more frequent and more lethal than left-wing violence. The number of extremist groups is substantial and skewed toward the right, although a count of organizations does not necessarily reflect incidents of violence.
Guess this conveniently coincides with this:This aged well...

That's not true because initially Kimmel was suspended, and not fired.
They suspended him because they were probably eventually going to bring him back regardless. If they didnt plan to, then they wouldn't have suspended him, they would have just fired him
Donald Trump is a greedy, psychopathic, dumb idiot. He has never been able to get a girl because of who he is.
Strange to say that on an escort board. Yet, folks, if you have never been able to bring a girl into your bed for free, you have a problem. And it's not us here who can help you.
