Interesting blog post from John Gruber at Daring Fireball: daringfireball.net/2023/08/disney_strategy_charts
In 1957 (and a later 1967 Org chart also referenced), everything revolves around theatrical releases. Ben Thompson argued in the linked post he wrote on Straterchery that Disney should have delayed a switch to streaming as long as possible. Gruber’s conclusion, on the other hand, is that “Disney was, and should remain, a serious engineering company. In 1967, WED engineers were creating everything from theme park animatronics to transportation systems.”
I think most of us here would agree that you don’t advance your brand by releasing subpar content.
