DeSantis has pushed for more state control over Disney's Orlando theme parks in the dispute.

During a Monday meeting with Disney shareholders, Mr Iger said "a company has a right to freedom of speech just like individuals do", according to US media.

He said that Mr DeSantis "got very angry about the position Disney took", referring to the company's objection to the state's Parental Rights in Education Act, dubbed by critics as the "Don't Say Gay" bill.

The measure bans school instruction about sexual orientation and gender identity for pupils aged nine and under.

In his remarks, Mr Iger also acknowledged a fight over a last-minute contract signed before Florida forced Disney to hand over uniquely held powers to state officials.

"It seems like he's decided to retaliate against us, including the naming of a new board to oversee the property and the business, in effect to seek to punish a company for its exercise of a constitutional right," Mr Iger said.

"That just seems really wrong to me."

"And I'll just leave it at that."

so you don't see anything wrong with the state stifling a private companies free speech lacky?

What free speech?

I see Disney who has been milking Florida out of paying taxes for decades; an agenda of pumping out groomer propaganda targeting kids, and other instances of acute liberalism infecting America.

Disney already pays taxes in Florida

Though the deal provided Disney with several privileges, it did not make the theme park tax-exempt. Disney World contributed more than $780 million in state and local taxes in fiscal year 2021, according to a company disclosure.

The Disney CEO is anti-children and pro-sexual exploitation of them!
