CEO Bob Iger is explaining Disney's decision to pull its advertising from Elon Musk's X.
He said, "I have a lot of respect for Elon and what he has accomplished.
We know that Elon is larger than life in many respects, and that his name is very much connected to the companies he founded or owns.
By him taking the position he took in a public manner, we felt that the association was not necessarily a positive one for us." Later in the day... Musk responded to Iger's comments about X during his own interview at the summit.
Musk said, "What this advertising boycott is going to do is, it is going to kill the company.
And the whole world will know that those advertisers killed the company."

The SEC deemed the tweets
"materially false and misleading,"
and in clear violation of securities laws.
At the time, Musk agreed to settle the issue
with the SEC, which included his signing off
on the so-called "Twitter sitter" provision.
NBC reports that Musk has since said
the restrictions are unconstitutional and that
he was coerced into signing the SEC agreement.
According to court papers, lawyers
representing Musk have accused the SEC
of waging an "ongoing campaign" against Musk.
Musk's legal team claim the provision , "restricts Mr. Musk’s speech even
when truthful and accurate.".
It extends to speech not
covered by the securities laws
and with no relation to the conduct
underlying the SEC’s civil action, Elon Musk legal team, via NBC.
In response, the SEC said in court papers
that Musk waived his right to appeal
when he signed off on the settlement.
