The business should never have been hijacked from the Disney family to begin with. Not Iger, not Eisner, not Katzenberg. Eisner's tenure did print the company a lot of money (with their genealogy, what else would you expect) but it changed Disney from that "innocent" company who turned still drawings into masterful works of art into a predatory, omnipotent corporation that didn't even want you home taping their classics when they came on TV. A company that bought out its partners and competitors left, right and center all the while spreading its hooked tentacles into every facet of not just American life, but just about every other culture too.
