Tense Exchange as Bloomberg’s Lucas Shaw Presses Disney’s Dana Walden Over Layoffs Disney’s ongoing job cuts sparked a pointed exchange between Dana Walden and Bloomberg’s Lucas Shaw at the Bloomberg Screentime conference on October 1st. Shaw questioned how Disney could still have employees to cut and operations to restructure after years of layoffs. Walden pushed back, calling his wording “the snarkiest possible version of this question” and disputing the suggestion that Disney was firing people every six months. Walden defended the need to continually reassess the company’s structure, while acknowledging that layoffs are “extremely painful,” including when they affect longtime colleagues.
