ESPN
ESPN is a sports media network 80% owned by Disney. Through its ownership structure and corporate parent company's controversial stances on international conflicts and social issues, ESPN has become an indirect target for boycotts due to its parent company complicity in whitewashing apartheid policies and supporting discriminatory ideologies.
Disney's Zionist Alignment
As an 80% Disney subsidiary, ESPN operates under a corporate structure with one-sided support for Israeli actions while remaining silent on Palestinian casualties. Following October 7th, 2023, Disney donated $2 million exclusively to Israeli causes, while to-date remaining completely silent of the genocide.
Disney employs Gal Gadot, a former IDF soldier who has publicly supported Israeli military operations that resulted in massive civilian casualties. Gadot has spread debunked claims about October 7th events and dismisses boycott efforts against Israel.
The company has a long history of promoting Zionism and anti-Arab rhetoric through it's subsidiary Marvel.
