    I still don't understand how she hasn't been canned in the last 3-5
    years, but better late than never I suppose.

    She *was* supposedly fired years ago, but for some weird reason never
    actually left and was still in charge and ruining everything she
    touched. :-( Her so-called "retirement" wil be another "I'll believe
    it when I see it" moment.

    ah, so Ms. Kennedy gets to join the Jeannine Karabas club
    of women getting the blame...

    Kathleen Kennedy *is* to blame for all the Politically Correct nonsense
    she forced into the franchises. :-(

    Let's hope that whomever they put in her place doesn't continue that
    habit.

    With Trump the Chump trying to get rid of all the Politically Correct
    nonsense, it is possible (some companies have already dropped the
    quota-filling silliness), but I wouldn't hold your breath. Politically
    Correct stupidity is pretty much the norm these days. Plus Trump the
    Chump will be gone again in a few years (despite him trying to change
    the laws on Presidential terms of office) and the next person will more
    than likely reverse any changes.
