ANECDOTE

Disney's Naming Strategy

  • This tactic was also used with "Tangled" to avoid the "Disney Princess" label and attract boys.
ANECDOTE

The Glitter Conspiracy

  • The glitter industry is secretive about its biggest buyer.
  • Theories include strip clubs, Mark Rober, and military applications like missile chaff.
ANECDOTE
