Disney Stores are for sale.....................and their downfall is due to the likes of Wal-Mart and Target.

>>Shows like "Lizzie", "Even Stevens", "Kim Possible" and "Dave the Barbarian" have huge adult viewership levels.<<

That is flat out incorrect.

I work with the media research division at my corporation, and we've actually reviewed the overnights (Neilsens) on Disney Channel shows. In the so-called "tween" cohort they are inarguably strong, but they start to drop dramatically in cohorts above 20 and are in essence "unwatched" by adult heads of households.

On a different tangent, a stockholder is now DIRECTLY asking Eisner what is going on with the Disney Stores. The answer is pretty much the party line - "we'll sell them to the right buyer."

He just said the Disney Stores are for sale, but not all.

 

[NandP]

Disney Store IS for sale OUT OF Mike's Mouth

I am sure Buffett sold ALL his Disney stock years ago, right before it's downturn.
CNBC reported others are stating guestimates at 42% against.

 

[wdw4us2]

Listen to him tap dance around the theme parks question.

Disgusting.

 

[perdidobay]

He didn't completely answer the question about what will happen if the stores don't find a buyer.

Which is where they are licensing all the "good" merchandise too.

 

[phorsenuf]

Did he just say 3500 phomes rang because of the Tower of Terror float???

 

[DisneyKidds]

Hope ME enjoyed his last world tour of the Disney Theme Parks .

 

[Pooh_Friend#1]

He totally tried to avoid the Theme park question. Gee I wonder why?

 

[Beauty]

He didn't even let her finish her question about the Theme Parks. He cut her off before she even finished talking.

 

[DoeWDW]

I hope ME has to PAY for his next entrance into one of the parks!

 

[mikeymars]

Oh, brother, another gadfly from the floor whining about how ABC news is covering the "middle east"....

 

[RadioNate]

I don't think that was her question! He is a master at spin though. I think it was a "have you been there lately....they STINK!"

 

[rascalmom]

Interesting that he regards going to the parks "one of the perks" of his job rather than as a responsibility as CEO & a member of the Board.

 

[Luv2Roam]

Sure he goes into a Disney park -- once a guest dies from maintenance neglect.
He even saw PhilaharMAGIC in DL, remember?

 

[DisneyKidds]

Wouldn't it suck if they cut off the webcast just as they were about to announce the results of the vote .

 

[wdw4us2]

Gee, Ei$ner enjoys his Theme Park perks as Chairman/CEO.

I wonder how much time he'll spend in the parks when he has to attend them as we mere mortals do.
