In Disney's DeSantis feud, echoes of a culture war that never died
LOS ANGELES — The weeks-long feud between the Walt Disney Co. and conservatives over Florida's Parental Rights in Education legislation — nicknamed the "Don't Say Gay" bill by LGBT activists — recently escalated into a full-blown imbroglio that has played out on cable news and social media.
Fox News host Laura Ingraham has accused Disney of "pushing a sexual agenda" on children.
