Disney agrees to settle Florida lawsuit with special district backed by DeSantis

by Dan Mangan
Mar 27 2024


KEY POINTS
• Disney agreed to end litigation in state court involving a Florida special tourism district containing the entertainment giant’s Walt Disney World resort.
• The lawsuit was related to the takeover of the district at the behest of Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis after Disney had opposed the state’s “Don’t Say Gay” law.
• “We are pleased to put an end to all litigation pending in state court in Florida between Disney and the Central Florida Tourism Oversight District,” Walt Disney World President Jeff Vahle said.

The judge ruled that Disney lacked legal standing to sue DeSantis on its claim he violated the company’s First Amendment rights by pushing to change the Reedy Creek Improvement District due to Disney’s opposition to the law.

Disney had appealed the dismissal of that suit.

But in its agreement Wednesday with the CFTOD, Disney agreed “to seek, and the District will not oppose, permission from the court to defer briefing in Disney’s pending federal appeal ... pending negotiations among other matters of a new development agreement between Disney and the District.”

Cue Robbobobb melting because Desantis personally pulled him over on his way into Disney World and gave him a ticket for speeding

Let's be honest. He's only denied the '24 nomination because the Jedi is slated to Return.

Our legacy media does not give two shits about the truth and hasn’t in many decades

the agenda/narrative is the only thing they care about

It wasn't predicted by Trump and his followers.

I don’t even mean this to shite on Ron, because I didn’t think appearing to go after this Disney woke shite was anything but a smart move on his part, but I have always suspected there was, at the very least, a lot of winking and nodding going on WITH Disney with this stuff. - Y.A. Tittle

quote:

The more we learn about Desantis the more it appears that he is nothing more than deep state in sheep's clothing. On the surface he's thrown a lot of red meat to conservatives but if you dig deeper it looks more like an effort that's being made to paint this guy as "the chosen one" when he's not. Odds are he's a deep state phony. When the neo cons and Paul Ryan throw their weight behind anything it's a huge red flag. - BuzzSaw 12

We told the people touting that for over a month now.

Ever Republicans in FL are talking about it.


We talked about that here on this board over the past month too. - Jjdoc (BCreed1)

Attacking Disney like this was a dumb move. DeSantis seems to be letting the pressure of 2024 get to him - Pelican fan99

So this was all bluster by Desantis. Everyone knew it was a faker when Diseny barely reacted. Its sad to see the nevertrumpers getting fooled again - TomShelby

If you read the article, there’s no clear “winner” here. Disney’s going to negotiate against the district out of court and pausing their federal suit for now

I remember when certain posters on here were convinced that desantis was outmaneuvered by Disney on the whole reedy Creek thing. Subsequently had their federal first amendment case thrown out and then lost their state of Florida case
