Freeform Pens A Note to Poor Unfortunate Souls
It’s been an interesting week for the official news outlets for The Walt Disney Company, who shot back at detractors – twice!
This time, the official Twitter account for Freeform reacted:
It’s been my pleasure to post articles about the casting of Halley Bailey as Ariel.
And it’s with some relish that I post this piece, as well.
She’s going to be great. The movie is going to be great. And I am excited for my children — my three boys — to see what Halle Bailey can do in the role.
And I am thrilled to see Disney via Freeform stand up for what is right.

After an extensive search, it was abundantly clear that Halle possesses that rare combination of spirit, heart, youth, innocence, and substance — plus a glorious singing voice — all intrinsic qualities necessary to play this iconic role…” Director Rob Marshall.
It’ll save me the time and money of seeing the movie and purchasing it. If Disney continues with the blackwashing and hypocrisy in the name of “diversity” I’ll happily leave the entire Disney company behind
