| − | Throughout his Disney career, actor [[Tommy Kirk (actor)|Tommy Kirk]] was a closeted [[homosexual]], and although no one knew, some people hated him. According to Kirk, the two most notable were Fred MacMurray and Jane Wyman. Who the latter Kirk described very harshly. "She was very mean to me. She went out of her way to be sh**ty ... but she was a total b**ch and I think she was homophobic." During the production of ''The Misadventures of Merlin Jones'', Kirk sexually molested a 14-year-old boy at the Burbank pool, which infuriated Walt Disney to the point he fired him. However, ''Merlin Jones'' was a massive hit, so Disney allowed him to return to film ''The Monkey’s Uncle'' which was a sequel to ''Merlin Jones''. It was also successful, but they soon cut tires with Kirk. Afterwards, his own family disowned him. After being fired by Disney, Kirk retired from acting, and lived a quiet life, before [[The Walt Disney Company]], by then [[Michael Eisner|under new leadership]], brought him back to do special features for DVD releases of his movies, and gave him the Disney Legends award in 2006, and this shows even more the big differences between Walt Disney and "progressive" liberal-globalist Disney Company. | + | Throughout his Disney career, actor [[Tommy Kirk (actor)|Tommy Kirk]] was a closeted [[homosexual]], and although no one knew, some people hated him.
