ABC/Disney CEO Grilled by Shareholder Over Media Bias: ‘Start Playing It Straight With the American People’

Disney/ABC CEO Grilled by Shareholder Over Perceived Media Bias

Robert A. “Bob” Iger (Credit: AP)

Disney CEO Bob Iger was asked about a number of issues at the Walt Disney Co. annual shareholders meeting on Wednesday, perhaps most notably about media bias at ABC News and ESPN.

During the general Q&A, a shareholder complained about political bias at ABC and ESPN. He cited two specific incidents at the networks, including when ABC’s Brian Ross wrongly asserted that the Aurora shooter James Holmes might be a member of the Tea Party and when ESPN commentator Rob Parker asked if Robert Griffin III was a “cornball brother” for having a white fiancĂ©.

“I’m just asking you to start playing it straight with the American people,” the shareholder said, according to the Hollywood Reporter. “Stop the bias and return to an era of objectivity and honesty in the news. The American people will thank you for it.”

Surprisingly, Iger did admit that the company has made mistakes in its reporting, though he didn’t get into specifics.

“We have, at times, either presented the news in a slightly inaccurate way or in ways we weren’t necessarily proud of,” he said. “[B]ut I firmly stand behind our news organizations because I believe that overall the job that they do is one that is worthy of respect.”

      @KeatonC333 When did you get the impression that GB was a News Organisation? GB presents the issues as he preceives them but never has he aserted that he was Breaking News Organisation. ABC however does presnt themselves as a News Organisation as well as providing entertainment, all of which they do in a slant toward an agenda which seems to favor the Leftists which is what the Shareholder was referring to.

      In defending Glen Beck, those who might wish to criticize him should check the amount of times he has been found guilty of any liable or misrepresentation of facts. He has always stayed above the fray and you know the left would love to ruin him. Glen’s methods were often right on target because he had sources in high places……. and many tried to get him; but they could not get him. Perhaps one of his most notable sucesses was the Administrations ousting of Van Jones….. The Obama Admin. Green Czar

      well the sad truth is that there was never a time when the news business “played it straight.’
      50 years ago, the three television networks and the overwhelming majority of newspapers and magazines were on the left, and radio stayed out of politics and news due to the fairness doctrine.
      The big difference today is that there is now opposition media thanks to Fox News, talk radio and the internet.

      @ Ted

      I agree with you entirely, but I would point out that the evidence from that (Van Jones) came from Mr Trevor Loudon at New Zeal.

      Mr Loudon is a superlative researcher and I believe that he is now formally associated with Blaze TV in some way. That can only be to the advantage of all concerned – especially us.

      On the odd occassion, Keaton makes a point worth reading. Today’s remark does not number amongst them.

      Come on, Keat, we’ve seen you do better. Keep your game high…

The most egregious was the Bush National Guard which was proven to be a forgery. It was national headlines until proven false then it disappeared.

      Let’s face it, if ABC, NBC, CBS, etc. started portraying the news in an unbiased manner, then Glenn Beck would no longer be necessary and *would* be out of a job.

      Liberals need to understand that they built Fox News. It was their bias which drove consumers over in droves, and making MSNBC super-left doesn’t remove the leftist tenancies from ABC, CNN, CBS, etc.

      Consider this.. Sometimes my posts either get censored or moved to the back but I wanted to see the thoughts on my comment.. I think it’s worthy of conideration.

      Is it possible that after the death of Walt Disney that his followers ethnicity could have contributed to their hatred of America, the family, and our Founding Fathers?

      Walt’s purpose was to promote the family, foster love of country and exalt our Founders…

      I’m sorry people. I know how you love your chosen people but I’m just trying to help you see the obvious.

      They have destroyed America.. Completely and utterly destroyed this country.. All that awaits us is a free for all like what occurred in the French Revolution.. enjoy it. A people that was handed everything on a silver platter who then neglects what they have been given and turns their country over to Aliens deserves destruction.. Couldn’t happen to a more deserving people.

News outlets are supposed to be unbiased sources for facts on current events. Commentators, whether liberal or conservative, offer insight, analysis, humor, etc. to those facts.

I do find your comments at times interesting, and I agree with you on some of your thoughts — and I’m sure I’ll now be called a liberal troll or some inane attempt at an insult for not being a far-right leaning bigot and fitting in here with so many.

Quit trying to influence people and just report the news, if something is controversial, report BOTH SIDES equally, quit telling us crap like global warming is a fact and acknowledge that a substantial number of scientists doubt human contributions to it, its not a fact, its a theory, and a pretty shaky one at that.

Climate change denial is purely, 100 percent made-up political and corporate-sponsored crap. When the loudest voices are fossil-fuel funded think tanks, when they don’t publish in journals but instead write error-laden op-eds in partisan venues, when they have to manipulate the data to support their point, then what they’re doing isn’t science.

      Urban community’s slums are growing.
      The number on welfare, unemployed is increasing.
      The national debt is increasing.
      The United States’s educational standing is plummeting to number 17 on the worldwide list.

      With those education credentials we have people who can not accurately predict the weather for next week, yet can predict that world weather is changing beyond century norms.

      In the 1960…70 these experts were predicting global freezing.

      In the 2000 these experts were predicting global warming.

      Today these experts are predicting weather variation greater than established norms but not predicting the path of the variation.

      The difference between being educated and brain washed with propaganda is use of facts.

      Fact/truth has no agenda.

      You are a moron, climate change has been happening since the beginning of time. It goes in cycles, and nothing that we do as humans is going to change it one way or another. Pretty high minded of you to believe that you can change climate cycles. What I find particularly funny is all you global warming/ice age/climate change weenies have been saying for years that we had global warming until it was found out that it was actually cooling, so you just change the name, on the biggest fraud ever pulled on human kind, and start calling it climate change so that you won’t have to change it again as the natural cooling and warming cycles come about.

      I had to stop watching certain home owner improvement programs years ago because they all started lacing in the stupid “green” things that they were supposed to promote and I couldn’t take it anymore because I started screaming at the T.V. and my husband and son thought I was losing my sanity and I felt like I was! Propaganda will do that to a person who thinks for themselves.

    “slightly inaccurate” is that like “slightly pregnant”?

      as in: ABC is reporting Rand Paul’s filibuster was an attempt to block brennan’s appointment, and that simply isn’t true. He said himself, it was to bring attention to murdering civilians if obama, by himself (or holder) decided an American citizen was a bad guy. Paul succeeded, and got a ‘no’ from holder. Might seem trivial to some, but protecting the laws- and we the people- from dictators, is NOT trivial.

    “[B]ut I firmly stand behind our news organizations because I believe that overall the job that they do is one that is worthy of respect.”

    What the heck !?! Since when is lying and misleading the populace “worthy of respect” !?!!!!

    And there you have it… To a liberal the truth is inconsequential. It is noble to lie as long as it forwards the agenda. To them the truth is the progressive agenda and facts are mere stumbling blocks from a reality that they feverishly wish did not exist. The unbelievable part is that they actually know and admit this.

    Progressive idiots… What how long do you think that a world built upon a foundation of lies will last before it all comes crashing down ?

      Kurt Vonnegut would be so disappointed in you.

      I guess when you buy into fox news’s alternate reality, the truth does tend to look like lies, and vice versa.

      Um, A liberal media corporation CEO just admitted that deception of the nation is still worthy of respect as long as the job is performed with the desired results. Now go pull your head out of the sand and read Harrison Bergeron. Or are you to afraid to face the real world on its own terms ???
      Again, read the story and tell me where I am wrong. You can’t do it.

    Go ahead Mr Iger…do nothing about the political bias of your news division and watch ABC follow NBC into ratings purgatory.

    Smart shareholder…cause they are losing money…and that kind of reporting causes more people to distrust them..

    Shareholders do hold them accountable when they become aware. Good on em.

      Yes, hopefully it’s catchy.

      And if the ” slightly inaccurate way or in ways we weren’t necessarily proud of” continues,
      perhaps share holders won’t talk;

      >they’ll put their money elsewhere.
