Disney & ESPN

.. just fired 300 people, 4% of their staff.

This really sucks. And I think it's Disney but not sure.

Do any of us know anything about this? Or some where/body I can let my anger be felt? To tell them that they are hurting themselves and others?

I'll dig in to find out what happened, but thus far, the fear of chord cutting drove Disney to make ESPN even more of a walled garden and needed to cut 4% to do it. 

Sigh.  Cable is an aberration, going from relaying stations over the mountain to other communities, to a monopoly that needs to die.
