DogeDesigner reacted to Elon Musk‘s post on his wish to join the Disney board, hinting at a whimsical first act: altering the iconic logo.
What Happened: DogeDesigner, as the name suggests, graphic designer at Dogecoin, posted on X, “The first thing Elon Musk will do after joining Disney is to change their logo.”
Why It Matters: Musk's announcement on Apr 1 coincides with the tradition of April Fools' Day, an annual event marked by practical jokes and hoaxes. The custom, observed on the first day of April, sees jokesters revealing their actions by exclaiming, "April Fools!" Mass media often participate in these pranks, and their true nature is typically exposed the following day.
The conversation appears as Disney is going through a proxy war involving Iger and Musk. Industry experts recently criticized the Disney board for being “too deferential” towards Iger. Experts highlighted concerns over Disney’s acquisition of 21st Century Fox assets, questioning the strategic value of the move.
