Eisner Under Fire: Everyone Is Listening
Blogger A Fly On The Wall reports that electronic listening devices ("bugs," in the parlance of espionage) were found in Disney CEO Michael Eisner's office on the company's Burbank lot during a "routine" security check over the July 4th holiday weekend. Just to make sure everything was nice and bug-free (tiny microphones do wreak havoc on an office's decor), some furniture was hauled away, ostensibly to be replaced by furnishings vetted by Disney's anti-spy squad. We've unfairly imagined Eisner as a disturbed paranoid, fortifying his office against bloodthirsty shareholder mobs. But it appears his fears were justified. What's that saying? "Just because I'm paranoid, doesn't mean there's not a highly-sensitive, covert listening device hidden in the area that Mickey's privates would occupy, were he not rendered as a rodent eunuch"?
