This face, Disney? |
- Yesterday we mentioned Taylor Swift's lawyer serving a cease-and-desist letter to a blogger who demanded Swift renounce her Nazi and white supremacist fans. Today, The Atlantic takes a deeper look at how Swift's Anti-PR Campaign is backfiring, by drawing more attention to her scumbag Nazi fans.
- The House of Mouse tried to throw its weight around yet again, by blacklisting the LA Times from screening its movies just because the paper had run a story about Disney's dealings with the City of Anaheim, which angered the beast. Many news outlets, including the New York Times, stood in solidarity with the LA Times, calling out Disney over its nonsense, and forcing the movie behemoth to back off and lift the ban. TFW you realize you aren't ALL powerful master of the universe... yet... so like freedom of the press is actually a thing you have to respect.
For today's musical hit, we have Bishop Briggs and "The Way I Do"
Today's critical rolls: Speaking of the House of Mouse and infinite power, there's been talk that Disney is looking at possibly purchase Fox (ie the movie division). Whether that is true or not, is that something you would look forward to? Joining the Disney (aka Marvel) and Fox (aka X-Men and Fantastic Four) universes together?
