		DISNEY: Well, they distorted everything, they lied; there was no way you could ever counteract anything that they did; they formed picket lines in front of the theaters, and, well, they called my plant a sweatshop, and that is not true, and anybody in Hollywood would prove it otherwise.

	Comcast and its bid to buy Disney (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		Sensing that the company was weak, several investors purchased very large portions of Disney with the intent of either being paid off to leave the company alone or eventually capturing a controlling interest and breaking the company into pieces for a huge profit.

		Rumors started circulating shortly after the release of the videocassette edition of The Little Mermaid that the phallic object had been deliberately drawn as a last act of defiance by a disgruntled Disney artist who was miffed at being notified that he would be laid off at the conclusion of the project.
