PoliSat Rhymes about...
Disney.

A Boomer's Lament about Disney, where the new theme is "We Will Dish Upon You Tar."
(Re previously undisclosed FBI notes indicating -- contrary to implications of Disney's new movie, The Insider, about a tobacco-company "whistle-blower" -- the "whistle blower" fabricated claims of tobacco-company threats on his life-- See Bloomberg News Service, Nov. 8, 1999)
    As children in the Fifties, we loved the Mouseketeers
    We watched them ev'ry day, you know, and laughed ourselves to tears
    Walt Disney was our idol who always stood for right
    Except when telling fairy tales, he kept the truth in sight
    Then long ago he passed away and others took the helm
    We'd trusted him from stem to stern but ain't so sure of them
    Dramatic license can be used to illustrate the facts
    But not to libel decent folks with untrue smears by hacks
    It's true that cigarette execs have earned our boos not cheers
    But Disney's movie libels them with propaganda smears
    They don't deserve to be portrayed as members of the mob
    Especially by a guy they fired from his tobacco job
    Their movie called "Insider" implies that they hired goons
    To threaten the "Insider's" life unless he changed his tune
    Like baseball fans of long ago who loved old Shoeless Joe
    We look at Disney now and say, "Please tell us it ain't so!" © 1999
