      Only Disney has those numbers, and releasing them would tank the stock that’s already dipping.

      There is zero reason for them to admit what is happening.

      Also of note, trump is pushing for it to go from quarterly to (I think) annual reports, so companies will be able to hide this stuff for longer, the whole time doing insider trading.

      It’s because nobody but Disney has that data, and they stopped sharing sub numbers because it fucks with stock price too much.

      Talkin out their ass seems to be Newsweek’s brand identity these days.

      We’ll never know exactly how many. I suppose there’s a way for outsiders to estimate it, but that won’t happen for weeks or months. Disney certainly won’t tell the truth over this.

      I guess we’ll see the numbers in quarterly reports. If they release them, as the orange cunt babbled something about not needing those from companies recently.

      How many people unsubbed isnt the point. The point is that you clicked. They did the same bait articles when Disney fired Gina Carano, and “the right” were all saying they were cancelling disney plus. I look around at the comments, and they are all pretty much the exact same. Just the political leanings have switched. Its both hilarious and incredibly sad at the same time.

      But people are talking about it on Twitter, and what happens on Twitter is more real than reality itself!
