Exhibit 1

 

Disney only recently started identifying media and content experience among members of its Board.

 

That makes sense…if you’re talking about Toyota or Raytheon.

 

But this is Disney - a company which should be led by media and content professionals!

 

Blackwells nominee Jessica Schell is a consummate media and content professional, with extensive experience at Warner Brothers.
