NY Times article on Eisner

An article today about the challenges to Eisner. Not much new stuff, but a good summary with some quotes for both supporters and detractors.

Very interesting article!!!!!!!!

For what its worth even from the TIMES it was a well thought out jab at Eisner, how much more media can he take condemming his current leadership?

Ousting Eisner may very well be as hard as convincing Castro to step down.

Either he fails to hold on as CEO due to poor health or there is enough negative public opinion of him that the board asks him to step down.

Eisner will never quit, he never has.

Ei$ner is alleged to have a very hot temper. This bad press has got to have him in a most inhospitable mood.

Scoop and I think the new Wishes show is a ton of great fireworks? Imagine what the show would look like if you were the guy that brings him the wrong bottle of Montrachet at the Four Seasons?

This may be a stupid question, but do you think he is actually aware of ALL the bad press out there about him? Now, I guess if his ego is as big as everyone says it is, (and I believe it is) he would be aware. But who's going to be the one that is bringing in all the articles to him to let him read?

I heard a very interesting 'rumor' and I can not reveal my sources but I can say they are part of the Disney industry.
Anyway, I heard that "IF" Mike has enough and decides to step down with some class, he may choose his 20th anniversary in Spetember 2004. Otherwise it was guestimated thathe should be out between 6 and 12 monthes.
This rumor thrilled me and I hope it happens!!!!
I also heard about the "Dream Team" Roy is planning on bringing to the table once he's back in power.
