The news just keeps getting worse for The Walt Disney Company.
Disney, like so many other corporations, turned itself into a factory of generic
progressive political posturing starting in 2016. As with the entertainment industry
at large, the film studio dedicated itself to churning out movies that resonated with
an extremely tiny percentage of the available audience. With predictably disastrous results.
Movie after movie bombed at the box office, culminating in a loss of brand prestige
that Disney has yet to recover from. And the news got worse in 2025, as "Captain
America: Brave New World" came in well below expectations. Only to be
overshadowed by the remarkable commercial and critical failure of the live-action
"Snow White" remake.

That's all bad enough; but on Friday, Disney learned it is also under investigation
for another one of its progressive practices: obsessive incorporation of
discriminatory DEI policies.
Disney's Political Extremism Coming Back To Haunt The Company
FCC Chairman Brendan Carr on Friday posted on X that he'd asked the FCC's
Enforcement Bureau to open an investigation into Disney and its subsidiary
company, ABC.
Carr sent a letter to Disney CEO Bob Iger informing him that Disney would be facing
an investigation over potential discrimination resulting from DEI initiatives at the
once-iconic entertainment giant.
