Money laundering at work, why would Disney have to pay when they own ABC

I didn’t watch that woke shit

They paid like a million per Oscar viewer.

Tax write off prob

That’s like 2 SB ads for a show that had less viewers than a rerun of the Golden Girls 😂

Doesn't Disney own ABC?

They’re owned by the same people

What is Disney trying to pretend they're different companies?

I read she can’t swim at all so it was all CGI

Sounds like this to me

Disney is a freaking joke.

New from Disney!

Odd Disney owns ABC

I guess I don't know how acquisitions work.

Seems like a waste of money.
