Stephen Burke is a very able executive. When he left, the company began to fall on bad times, ... Steve is the kind of guy that Disney ought to be populating all its divisions with.

Would begin to handle this with the best interest of shareholders, and not the best interest of Michael Eisner, in mind.

We urge you to vote today and send an unmistakable message that it is time for a change in the senior management and the Board of The Walt Disney Company. Tell the Board you believe it is time to replace Michael Eisner -- eight years of substandard performance is long enough.

At this point in time, the board's credibility is in question due to reports that they have yet to interview a single outside (CEO) candidate. Potential candidates, meanwhile, are indicating a lack of interest in the position because of the delays in the search process and the uncertainty regarding when Mr. Eisner will leave the Company.
