In 2005 Bob Iger was named the new CEO for The Walt Disney Company. This took place at a time when the Disney Brand was said to be outdated‚ when analyst thought that there were too many Disney products that locked the quality that customers expected. (Robbins‚ 2012). Due to Disney’s declining reputation Iger decided to address that perception by implementing‚ what he calls‚ the Disney Difference. (Robbins‚ 2012). The Disney Difference would be what set Disney apart from all other media companies

Snow White‚ The Sleeping Beauty‚ The Little Mermaid‚ Cinderella and Pinocchio are among the stories that Disney immortalized in movies‚ and he was very lucky because children decided to believe in their renovated stories rather than wonder about the origins.

I enjoy reading “Song of Myself” poem from the book in this assignment. Whitman is a good example of American identity because he has experienced it. America is one of the country consist a lots of different ethnicities like African American‚ Asian‚ Hispanic etc. The quote of Whitman “This is the meal equally set this the meat for natural hunger‚ It is for the wicked just the same as the righteous‚ I make appointments with all” (The Norton Anthology of American Literature‚ 1342).
