Nothing in the article mentions how many people actually unsubbed...
DROVES
Damn American units
It's the car culture I tell ya
Best steer clear of that
It's the cowboy culture I tell ya
Best ride clear of that
You are driving your point home there.
It's not that bad. But, really quick, how many droves in a fuckton?
Anything but metric
More than a handful, less then a metric fuckton.
THERE ARE DOZENS OF US
Are those biblical droves or Roman droves?
Because Newsweek is a rag. If they reported that the sky was blue, I'd go outside and check myself
It's because nobody but Disney has that data, and they stopped sharing sub numbers because it fucks with stock price too much.
Talkin out their ass seems to be Newsweek's brand identity these days.
thier stocks did drop 7%.
There's a guy in the comments who posted a picture of an unsubscribe email.
So... at least one person.
How do you propose a journalist reveal numbers only Disney has access to?
Of course not. This article was written using vibes.
It's vibe reporting.
But people are talking about it on Twitter, and what happens on Twitter is more real than reality itself!
Let me guess without opening: it is based twitter screenshots are quotes from users who are supposedly cancelled their subscription
