So, my thought was at the time that I would essentially be public with that thought process.
I did not want to get accused of being kind of an old media executive.
Our company had already shown the ability to basically adapt to new circumstances.

So, 1) I wanted to convey that and 2) see what the reaction would be.
I did not say they were for sale.
The coverage of what I said said they were for sale.
The portfolio of linear assets are not for sale, Iger said.
Like all of our assets, we are constantly evaluating what is their value to the company today?
What could their value be tomorrow?
Is it a growth business?
