Disney CEO Bob Chapek says he's a changed man. Just two weeks ago, in a March 7 memo to Disney staff, Chapek defended the company's decision to remain publicly silent about Florida's "Don't Say Gay" legislation. Chapek said he was concerned any statement about the legislation, which prohibits classroom discussion of "sexual orientation or gender identity" through the third grade, would be "weaponized" by opponents of LGBTQ rights and "counterproductive."
