If it's not him, I really hope that they look outside the company; I have no faith that Rasulo will do anything other than continue Iger's policies that are squeezing every last ounce of value out of the Disney brand

Staggs as CEO, like Eisner, and Rasulo COO, like Wells. I also hope for Staggs. He has a wondeful sense of humor, at least I got that impression at a D23 Expo presentation. <a target="blank" rel="nofollow" href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BEbIltfqdZE">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v...IltfqdZE</a> That's why I think Staggs could be a more creative person like Eisner and Rasulo could take care of the numbers like Wells did.
