Mickey Mouse re-elects Steve Jobs
p2pnet view Movies:- Apple boss Steve ‘Reality Distortion’ Jobs may be sick, but he’s not that sick, Walt Disney investors have decided.
They’ve re- elected him to the board, “rejecting the views of proxy advisers who say health issues may impair his ability to serve”, says Bloomberg News, going on:
“Jobs, 56, was re-elected with 12 other nominees at the shareholder meeting today in Salt Lake City, with 74 percent of the votes cast backing the group, according to a preliminary count. The Apple executive, absent from the meeting, owns 7.3 percent of Disney and is the largest shareholder.
“The advisory group Glass Lewis & Co. recommended investors withhold support for Jobs, citing his absence from meetings. Institutional Shareholder Services, Inc., stopping short of urging rejection, said Jobs’s attendance and ‘recent leave of absence from his primary employer, raises questions about his ability to fulfill his responsibilities as a director’.”
Jobs recently handed the reins of power to Apple COO Tim Cook when he went on another medical leave, saying “I love Apple so much and hope to be back as soon as I can”, p2pnet said recently.
But is he dying?
According to Radar Online, which in turn quotes supermarket tabloid The National Enquirer, Jobs had been “attending the Stanford Cancer Center” where Patrick Swayze “sought radical chemotherapy for pancreatic cancer before his death in September, 2009″.
