I don't think so. I think the reason the Bobs didn't get rid of her earlier was fear of a lawsuit, or her possible knowledge of various things.
Now Iger has countervailing leverage. He already moved in his people to Lucasfilm, I think it's just a matter of negotiating her exit stipend.
Too little (OK maybe not little), but is it too late?

I guess the threshold for concluding "go woke, go broke" is somewhere north of 2-5 billion for large corporations.
I'd like to think that that Iger and his hatchetmen will totally repudiate wokeism. Most likely, they'll just dial it back, so instead of full-on globohomo mutual tongue rape kisses and bare chested after sex bedroom homo lovey dovey eyes, it will be just lingering glances and then a jump cut to secret smiles?

Eh, just don't watch it. Worked for boycotting Bud Light.
Disney and or Lucasfilm is for kids 4-8 basically. The parents have the money and control at that age. Don't go to the movie or buy it. There are plenty of investors and other firms invested in Disney that will push back when they see results.
I'm with kids in the 9-14 age range. None of them watch anything Disney anymore. Not by force by me either. They just don't like it. I have all boys though so maybe it's different with girls. Fact is they have a catalog of content that is insane from the past. You can't Bud Light Disney, but people are always gonna go to the theme parks and buy the classics.
ESPN is probably the biggest drag. Haven't watched in ages unless it's in hotel rooms. I think they missed the sports betting thing (not my jam) and it screwed them. Sports now are just a viewable casino. ESPN puts out bull shit content that is so damn repetitive. I've stopped watching almost all sports. I'll maybe watch a Sunday major golf tournament like the Masters and that's it.
Nearing the point where everything has just gone to shit. All national content whether it be shows or movies is shit.

Yep.

I don't think kids are watching Disney these days. Mine watch internet content creators, Mr. Beast, Dang Matt Smith, Prestonplayz & Brianna, and my eldest now discords with other kids and makes guilds to go play Poppy Playtime (actually a horror game) or Fortnite.
It's funny, the legacy media is STILL promoting legacy institutions: Smithsonian, PBS, etc. on streaming/internet.

Smithsonian: the FBI of natural history, where real history artifacts are warehoused or destroyed, and a substitute flavorless tapioca propaganda takes its place.
PBS: where the agitprop barf fest alternate reality of lies and Satanist misappropriations never ends.

In conjunction with her termination, we’d like an apology for episodes 7-9 and a commitment to reboot them as a bad dream Chewie had after digesting some rotten wookiecookiez. Chewie wakes up from the dream in a cold sweat and realizes it was just the side effects of a bad food binge. Then Han yells over the intercom “wake up Chewie we got work to do”, chewie grunts and life is good again until the next episode.

Some great video clips in the link above.
Some great video clips in the link above.
Confirmed by multiple sources: Lucasfilm now under control of 5 Disney Execs; MASSIVE unauthorized spending on parties, food, vacations, travel by KK and KK Top Henchmen over years at Disney that clearly and grossly violate corporate rules on expenditure AND reporting. These amounts are 8 figures over several years. Also confirmed: At the "All Hands" meeting earlier this week, the 5 Disney execs are exercising day to day control over Disney, not Kennedy - repeat, this is confirmed.
It's one thing for Kennedy to dupe a couple of nerds like Lucas and Spielberg, it's another thing when she messes with a longtime Corporate Executive and a known master of skulldruggery and dark triad abilities for decades, Bob Iger.
Rumors: Lesyle Headman (KK's #2) given 72 hours to show up to the office with all records for the "Acolyte", Kathleen Kennedy email suspended and she's banned from her own office until she meets with Disney's Legal, Compliance, and Accounting Execs explaining serious discrepancies.
