Much too pro-Disney

Re “Faster, Higher -- and Smarter” [June 30] on the latest thrill rides, I couldn’t help but think the L.A. Times must be suffering for lack of ad revenue from the Disney company given the recent round of unflattering articles about the accidents they’ve endured. This whole puff piece comes off as a big wet kiss in the hopes of softening the blow from the California Supreme Court’s decision about raising the standard of care for theme park operators. The descriptions seem like exaggerated sale pitches: “We’ve been able to make dark darker. In the past, that illusion was created by beaming a red light into passengers’ eyes.” Hmmm. Paying through the nose to see pitch black
