This is excellent news

Let's hope that when his contract runs out in 2006 that he will either resign or be forced out.

I think this quote is excellent -

"Well I think Eisner is just over. I mean he ought to just relax and go home. He took a billion dollars out of the company. I mean look, hey Don, you run a company like Disney. It's not like you created it. Walt Disney created it. You run a company like Disney. He's worth 900 or a billion dollars or something like that from running the company, give me a break."
