Don’t Diss Disney

I was perplexed to read the Sept. 29 editorial, “Failing Magic at Disney”--singling out the Walt Disney Co. and its CEO, Michael Eisner, for criticism--because I know the many good things that Disney has done for California. The Anaheim theme park has become one of the great attractions in California; Disney has been one of the few employers that has increased its employment over the last few years; and Disney family and Disney Co. contributions made possible Los Angeles’ great new concert venue, the Walt Disney Concert Hall.

Frankly, I wish California had more Disneys. They have been great corporate citizens for Los Angeles and our state.
