Disney Axes Boob Screeners as Fewer Flash Splash Mountain

Women keep shirts on, editors lose theirs

Share

(Newser) – A decline in breast-baring has triggered job cuts at Disneyland, reports the Orange County Register reports. Disney is axing photo editors tasked with screening out photos of people flashing cameras that snap automatically on Splash Mountain and three other rides. The photos are posted for sale at kiosks at ride exits. Flashing has become rare, but Disney warned that screeners will be back on the job if the problem comes up again.

What Disney is really saying is that they love the boob pics and will be selling them to magazines for profit Reply
