Walt Disney Co. CEO Bob Chapek on Tuesday addressed the firing of Gina Carano from the Disney+ show. The executive was asked about the situation during an annual shareholders' meeting.

Asked by a caller during the Q&A portion if Disney had a"black list," insinuating Carano, by name, was targeted for her conservative politics, Chapek responded that he does not see Disney as"left-leaning or right-leaning" and that Disney stands “for values that are universal: Values of respect, values of decency, values of integrity and values of inclusion. And we seek to have the content that we make reflective of the rich diversity of the world we live in.

But Disney and DisneyStudios has no problem with a guy who wanted to put kids in a wood chipper.

Sure Bob

Disney’s “values” aren’t the virtues of most Americans. I’m calling bs.

So Chapek and Disney can say whatever they like, but actions speak far louder than words. ginacarano is a lovely woman and actress, and Disney has shown over the last few years they're nothing more than pandering lap dogs.

Or not!!!!!

And yet they hire child labour in China

Yeah of course your company stands for integrity & values of decency 😬😬😬

DalekBrittney Yeah of course your company stands for integrity & values of decency 😬😬😬

Why has your reporter TheRyanParker skipped the key part of the story which is that PedroPascal1 has also compared the jews to conservatives but keeps his job? Is this sexism? Or just old fashioned bigotry? GinaCarano Mandalorian PS This will not go away.

Lol china wants a word.

I'm sure your company stands for values of respect, decency, integrity and inclusion..

The Uighurs would like to have a word with Disney Oh wait, they can't... China

Hypocrites and cowards from Disney. They fired the only really strong and independent woman, the very thing they stand for...

Uyghurs in China would like a word, Bob.

Unless it’s diversity of thought 🤷‍♂️

Value of the cheapskate wages that they pay employees

so true

Oh, PLEEEEASE!

Yes it is.

Everyone hates their corporate cowardice. Sad day for Walt

When someone says ' the company isn't 'left-leaning or right-leaning' You can be sure that company is left-wing, that is classic diversion by leftist. They show it in action, never trust their words.

Every company has a code of ethics and values ... and Disney is known to be conservative in that sense .Plus she was advised against such posts earlier .She didn’t pay heed to that and they fired her.This could happen in any organisation. It’s quite simple really

so leftist celebs can throw nazi hitler type insults out there daily but when a right wing actress thorws just ONE WW2 refermec out there she gets fired? lets not pretend thats any kind of fair balanced hand Hollywood is applying. Not even subtle bias.

🤣🤣🤣

Being fired for your personal views is so stupid lol

Isn't left leaning? Ok.
