All this plus a brand new Communicore Weekly and MiceChatter video. And we’ll also announce the winner of our Sanders Art Studios Goofy contest. Ready to Round-Up? Let’s go!

To the contrary, Tomorrowland, Christmas and the way the company treats its best employees are all being dealt tough blows. Grab a cup of coffee and settle in for an eye opening updated that will challenge the way you feel about how the Disney Company is being run these days.
