Scapegoat or savior? (http://www2.ocregister.com/ocrweb/ocr/article.do?id=4585) - Orange County Register, 9/27/02
Bernard J. Wolfson looks at the good and the bad of Paul Pressler's time while working for the Walt Disney Company, including quoting both Al Lutz and David Koenig. (Note: the following quote shows the spelling as shown in the article.)
QuikQuote: "Zippity doodah. What a wonderful day," quipped Al Lutz, a longtime Pressler critic who operates Mouseplanet.com, one of many Disney-watching Web sites. "I'm delighted for the Gap. I think it's a good thing all the way around." ......
Keonig said Pressler does deserve a good share of the blame for the alleged lack of creative ambition at the Disney theme parks. He said California Adventure, in which Pressler played a central role, suffers from a much deeper problem than temporary economic woes. It's a conceptual problem, he said: The mostly local people who attend Disneyland simply don't want to attend a theme park about California.
