Disney Cashes In On The Osmonds Family Act Formula!

Disney, the empire that Walt Disney built back in the early 1940′s-50′s has really hit its stride lately. WEith the success of their Disney cable channels and hit shows to boot (That’s So Raven, Hannah Montana, The Wizards of Waverly Place, The Jonas Brothers) they’ve been knocking them out of the park for the past ten years or more now. but what’s really surprising is the success of their radio stations Disney radio and recording artists to boot. With Hannah Montana, The Jonas Brothers, and Zack Ephron just to name a few Disney is raking in millions of dollars annually throug their record sales. A lot of the credit goes to their formula in packaging good clean family entertainment while keeping up with the current trends in fashion and music. They’ve done very well at it for a while now but I can’t help drawing comparisons to an older act that Disney helped to laung onto the world-stage a while ago; and they were the Osmonds.
