Steve Jobs poised to take over Disney?
"The board of Walt Disney has authorized Chief Executive Robert Iger to make an offer to buy Pixar Animation Studios, and that is expected by Tuesday ... The Wall Street Journal has reported that Disney is considering an all-stock offer, which would make Pixar Chief Executive Steve Jobs its largest individual shareholder ... A deal that gives Jobs a Disney board seat could also put him in a position to lead Hollywood's move onto the Web."
[via reuters]
imagine what a deal that would be? Jobs' (being Chief-Executive of Apple also) influence and decisions in time to come, will impact quite a lotta shitte across the board, innit? and so far with Pixar's and Apple's track-record, it will be an eventual overall world-domination, innit? ... the question is: can one man hold that much power? *shudder*
