Bobbies The decision not to arm British police officers was made when Sir Robert Peel, then the home secretary, founded the Metropolitan Police in 1829. Police officers were nick named “bobbies” after him, and a conscious effort was made to differentiate them as much as possible from the heavily armed British army, which the public then viewed with considerable hostility. According to The Wall Street Journal, the creation of the Metropolitan Police began a tradition of “policing by consent” – the idea that a police officer’s primary duty is to the public rather than to the state, as it is elsewhere. (cont’d) Week of October 2, 2017 3 of 9 PERSONALITIES(cont’d) Bobbies (cont’d) In the U.S., for instance, police power is derived from the states under the 10th Amendment, which recognizes states’ rights to manage their affairs. The bobbies were outfitted in top hats and tightly buttoned blue tunics – a deliberate color choice to set them apart from the red coasts of the British army – the first bobbies patrolled their beats on foot, equipped with nothing but a wooden truncheon and a whistle. Those in particularly dangerous areas carried cutlasses. Hugh Hefner Hugh Hefner, the founder of Playboy magazine (1953), has passed away. He was 91 years old. PLACE Subway Cars/ The New York Metropolitan Transit Authority has signed a contract with Outfront Media Outfront Media, its long time out of home advertising partner, to provide close to 50,000 digital video ad displays in stations and in subway cars throughout the city system, including the Long Island Railroad and Metro-North trains. RETAIL Kroger/Local Kroger is launching a website allowing local suppliers to pitch niche products Suppliers directly to buyers at the grocer’s 2,800 stores. Mastercard/Pop-ups Mastercard, in collaboration with Marie Claire magazine, has unveiled a temporary shop in Manhattan designed to meld the speed and convenience of online shopping with the experience of browsing in an actual store. The so-called pop-up shop, dubbed The Next Big Thing, will enable customers via an app to try on outfit, mix and match accessories, then pay for an ensemble without ever leaving the fitting room. How it works: visitors to the pop-up shop will download an app that allows them to input their payment information as well as book appointments with Neiman Marcus stylists who are available on site. Each piece of clothing has an electronic tag embedded in the label so that when customers enter the fitting room, the mirror will recognize what they’re trying on and then display it. Not only will the so-called smart mirror allow customers to adjust sizes or view different colors, it will suggest a pair of shoes, a belt or other accessory that it will display as well. When shoppers are ready to buy, instead of trudging to a checkout counter, they simply touch the item’s image on the mirror and tap check out. The shirt, jacket or another item automatically shifts to a cart on the customer’s mobile device. There, they can complete the purchase and note whether they want to tote it from the store or have it delivered. Pinterest/Target Image search platform Pinterest, which is seven years old, has struck a deal with retailer Target to license its camera image search tool, which lets users of Pinterest’s app browse similar images and objects to pictures they take with their phones. How it works: Target will embed the tool in its own app, allowing shoppers to snap photos on their phones of items they like and receive suggestions from Target for similar products to buy. Week of October 2, 2017 4 of 9 SOCIETY Household Income The Federal Reserve reported that U.S. median household income, adjusted for inflation, increased 10% to $52,700 after falling in the prior two three-year periods.

  • The Walt Disney Company Exclusion of Shareholder Proposal by Myra K
    SANFORD J. LEWIS, ATTORNEY January 6, 2021 Via electronic mail Office of Chief Counsel Division of Corporation Finance U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission 100 F Street, N.E. Washington, D.C. 20549 Re: Shareholder Proposal to Disney Inc. Regarding Advertising Policies and Social Media on Behalf of Myra Young To Whom It Concern: Myra K. Young (the “Proponent”) is beneficial owner of common stock of Disney Inc. (the “Company”) and has submitted a shareholder proposal (the “Proposal”) to the Company. I have been asked by the Proponent to respond to the letter dated October 31, 2020 ("Company Letter") sent to the Securities and Exchange Commission by Lillian Brown of Wilmer Hale. In that letter, the Company contends that the Proposal may be excluded from the Company’s 2021 proxy statement. I have reviewed the Proposal, as well as the letter sent by the Company, and based upon the foregoing, as well as the relevant rules, it is my opinion that the Proposal must be included in the Company’s 2021 proxy materials and that it is not excludable under Rule 14a-8. A copy of this letter is being emailed concurrently to Lillian Brown of Wilmer Hale. Summary The Proposal requests that the Board of Directors commission an independent third-party report assessing how and whether Disney ensures the Company’s advertising policies are not contributing to violations of civil or human rights. Among other things, such report should consider whether advertising policies contribute to the spread of hate speech, disinformation, white supremacist recruitment efforts, or voter suppression efforts, and whether the policies undermine efforts to defend civil and human rights such as through the demonetization of content that seeks to advance and promote such rights.
