“Just Hitting Another

Brick Wall”







Are Disney and Comcast
marketing evil?

By Judith Reisman


On May 1, some thousands of New Jersey children were sadistically violated by Comcast's screening of pornography on the Disney Playhouse cable channel.

How many thousands of innocent 3 to 6-year-old children were traumatized by the close-up groans and grinds of pornography in place of "Handy Manny"? The number is a well-guarded Disney and Comcast secret.

I received one cynical e-mail saying, "It was a sanctioned technology experiment as the parental controls were overridden. That's why there's no government action." Who will be prosecuted for deliberately and/or recklessly brutalizing these wide-eyed youngsters?

Statistically speaking, some percentage of these small victims will eventually act out on themselves, on their siblings, neighbors, friends, or families and blame themselves!

The Children's On Line Protection Act, or COPA, would have Internet sites require age identification cards for their content – just like store owners require to sell beer or cigarettes. Disney, an E! Playboy distributor, has aggressively opposed COPA's efforts to penalize sites that give minors access to harmful material.

Under the circumstances, I understand why my correspondent suspects that the May 1 "accident" was actually a test run by Comcast, Disney – or both – to induce small children into pornography addiction.

In effect, these media predators broke into private homes and force- fed children pornography. After irate parents complained that their children had just been assaulted by their pornographers, parents got a spry "sorry" from the Comcast sex traffickers.

"It was two people doing their thing, it was full-on and it was disgusting," explained Paul Dunleavy to the New York Daily News. "My son was extremely upset because he thought he'd done something wrong. … We're hoping what he saw doesn't become an issue for him." Well, he may hope.

"We try to do the right thing to protect our kids from this stuff, and then they broadcast it on children's TV," he said. "I wouldn't have thought Disney would become one of them." But Disney is indeed "one of them."

Disney is pedophile-friendly at the highest echelons, brazenly hiring
convicted pedophiles like Victor Salva to write and direct sexualized
child films like "Powder."

Salva served 15 months for sodomizing at least one 12-year-old boy
who had acted in Salva's first teen horror film, "Clownhouse."
Entertainment Weekly reported that in "Powder," Salva has a male
teacher stroke the boy's head and tell the child he's "never had
better sex" since being touched by the lad.

Disney kept this and other sexualized child scenes in "Powder" and
warned no one of Salva's criminal pedophile history. One press critic
noted, "The movie studio participated in the secrecy and the cycle of
abuse."

In fact, Salva joined another well-paid Disney predatory "talent."
Larry Clark, infamous for his naked photographs of young boys,
directed "Kids" (1995) in graphic sex, violence and drug use. Ted
Baehr's Movieguide notes that this child-abusive film was so deviant
that Disney distributed it under the Miramax label.

Newsweek said "The art-movie company Miramax has paid $3.5 million to
distribute 'Kids' worldwide. Unfortunately, Miramax is owned by the
Walt Disney Co. … The movie is called 'Kids,' but you'd better leave
yours at home.
New York photographer Larry Clark, known for his raw
images of adolescent sexuality, has just debuted his first film at
the Sundance Film Festival."

Chicken hawks of a feather bring similar chicken hawks together.

Peter and Rochelle Schweizer provide a laundry list of Disney's
convicted pedophiles in their investigative report, "Disney: The
Mouse Betrayed; Greed, Corruption, and Children at Risk" (1998). They
write, "Some of Disney's pedophiles … are positioned in high-profile
jobs dealing with children."

By 1999, Patrick Naughton, executive vice president of Disney's Go
Network, was convicted of possession of child pornography and of
planning to have sex with a 13-year-old girl.

In April this year, three men arrested in a pedophile sting revealed
themselves as Disney employees. They planned to have sex with boys
and girls, ages 13 and 14.

In February this year, Disney employee Matthew Wendland was arrested,
charged with 51 counts of possessing child porn.

In 1998, the reporter's reporter, Reed Irvine (now deceased),
revealed that Michael Eisner, chairman of the Walt Disney Co, subtly
warned ABC to censor any such bad news about Disney.

Irvine wrote, "Only days later, a story that was to air on '20/20'
exposing Disney's lax attitude toward employing pedophiles at its
theme parks was killed" by ABC.

In the December 1998 issue of the now defunct Brill's Content,
Elizabeth Stevens reported, "Disney had a worse pedophile problem
than the other theme parks that were examined." Law-enforcement
officials said Disney failed to "run criminal-background checks of
new employees" and were less than helpful in "assisting their
investigations of crimes on Disney property."

"Disney was the only theme park that did not agree to work with the
Central Florida Child Exploitation Task Force when it was established
in 1995."

Disney's propagandistic marketing of "gay," lesbian and transgendered picnics, parties, books, videos and the like sends a powerful message, as does its anti-Christian pulpiteering, its Miramax films of incest, sadosexuality, prostitution as well as its E! Playboy
gateway pornography.

Media critic L. Brent Bozell III wrote, "The Schweizers cover not
just Disney's appalling record on crime. There's sexual harassment,
child labor violations and how management allows Disney World to have twice the injury rate than the amusement park average. … Some of Disney [CEO Michael] Eisner's moves might be explained as a image-be-damned search for profits, like Disney's partnership in the pay-per-
view programs of 'Viewer's Choice,' which quickly spun off 'Hot Choice,' with new porn titles by smut queens like Marilyn Chambers. ..."

The Schweizers note that inevitably Disney's "own movies" and their
pornography merge into one.

For example, Playboy's plasticized 2006 Playmate of the Year was once
a "Disney World Snow White and Cinderella." Now children can smoothly shift from "Cinderella" on the Disney channel to Cinderella on
Disney's E! "Girls Next Door" pornography site.

E!'s website says, "E! is a joint venture with Comcast controlling 50.1 percent and Disney controlling 49.9 percent."

I've said elsewhere that Disney traffics pornography. Was the recent
pornographic assault on the brains, minds, memories and actions of
thousands of innocent toddlers a Comcast and/or Disney "glitch," or a
test?
You decide.

This kind of stuff is nothing new with the Disney Corporation. Back in the late 1970s and during the 1980’s, there were several incidents of parents buying video copies of Disney classics and then discovering that some of them contained some very quick porno scenes disbursed throughout the Video. These were scenes of the cartoon characters engaged in sexual acts. In one such video, one parent discovered smoke from a camp fire, rising up to form the words “HAVE SEX”.

Personally, I do not think that any of this would have gone on or been allowed if Walt Disney were alive. I believe that he would be appalled by what has happened to his company.
