Breitbart:
Disney is eager to fire and replace Kathleen Kennedy over her disastrous handling of the Star Wars franchise, reports Grace Randolph of Beyond the Trailer.
The left-leaning trades –Deadline, the Hollywood Reporter, and Variety, etc. — continue to willfully drop the ball when it comes to intelligent and honest reporting on Disney’s imploding Star Wars franchise. This means their readers cannot trust them for accurate and objective information. If a single one of these outlets has shown the moral courage to accurately reporting on the fan revolt against the left-wing turn the franchise has taken with Kennedy at the wheel, I missed it.
And Kennedy’s politics are the whole enchilada, are the primary reason the most loyal fans in fandom are in full rebellion, and why The Last Jedi is now seen as the Batman vs. Superman of the Star Wars universe — meaning the movie that was still a hit but soured everyone on the franchise. more here
I know one thing, I’m not real happy about Disney taking over FOX.
The market spoke loud and clear to Disney. They invested a lot of money into Star Wars and have to resuscitate the franchise quickly.
I believe Disney is mostly getting film / movie side of Fox. I know they didn’t get Fox News in the deal and I don’t think they got Fox Sports or the Fox network.
Get Woke, go Broke!
@Dr. Tar,
Disney is run by a bunch of leftists. If they bought Fox News they would HAVE to make it lefty too, and that would evaporate their audience and make that property worthless.
I’m surprised that Disney DIDN’T buy it anyways and just run it into the ground with Shep Smith clones morning, noon, and night.
the franchise was ruined when they made the third film !
the films following were just extensions of that poor excuse for entertainment.
What happened to anti-trust laws to regulate companies to avoid monopolies? Ma Bell was broken up for what? So that our telecom industry could be taken over by a few large organizations?
As for Star Wars, I haven’t seen Solo and I may never watch it. I am so sick of the left pushing their politics into every aspect of life. Imagine if Hillary had won. Retch.
Disney knew she was a full-blown SJW when they gave her that position. So, Disney…assume the position.

See, I actually liked The Last Jedi.
I just didn’t like the ending for Luke, so hopefully they fix that somehow in the 3rd part.
