Guiding Conscience

Disney character quits over 9/11 film.

ORLANDO (XF) - The fallout from Disney's The Path to 9/11 has now resulted in one of the company's most recognized icons' resignation, The Xsociate Files has learned. Jiminy Cricket, the lovable insect from Pinocchio has split with the company after nearly sixty years.

When reached for a comment, Mr. Cricket said that he felt that Disney had lost touch with the message set forth by company founder Walt Disney.

"I don't think Walt would approve of where Mr. Iger has taken the company. As for me, I let my conscience be my guide...right out the front door," Mr. Cricket told XF.
