           Disney officials’ statements are optimistic and its stock continues to climb, but the company’s Disney channel pay television service has lost 37% of its subscribers between June and October, a decrease from a high of 8,000,000 to 5,000,000 according to Hollywood Reporter. Don Wildmon, president of the American Family Association, said, “It’s significant that during the four months the Disney Channel lost paying subscribers, the Southern Baptists questioned Disney’s moral climate and the Assemblies of God and Freewill Baptists voted to join the AFA in boycotting the company.” [Editorial Comment: Bad news for Disney is good news for America, for our homes, and for our children. Every Christian should be careful to avoid buying any Disney product, every Disney entertainment offering ... and should be encouraging others to do the same. TCP]
