Re: “China OKs a Disney theme park,” Nov. 4:
How does Disney justify building a Disneyland in China? The company is well aware of China’s wanton disregard for intellectual property.
China is the largest producer of pirated DVDs and counterfeit trademarked merchandise. Someone there will probably build a fake Disneyland in half the time it takes Disney, and start advertising it as the actual Disneyland.
