A senior vice president at the Walt Disney Company reportedly said in an undercover video captured by the O’Keefe Media Group that he was told by co-workers in the human resources department the corporation discriminates against white men.
Michael Giordano, a senior vice president and team lead at the Walt Disney Company, reportedly said the corporation discriminates against white men on account of their race and sex in O’Keefe’s video. The report comes as the company has embraced far-left policies on gender and race, going so far as to embed them in their movies and television shows.
“I have friends in HR and I have friends in other divisions. And they’re like, ‘Look, nobody else is going to tell you this, Mike, but they’re not considering any white males for the job,’” Giordano reportedly divulged to an undercover journalist with O’Keefe Media Group.
He also went on to say that being a white male limits his upward mobility within the company. “As far as Disney is concerned, I am a white male and that’s not who they’re looking to promote at the moment,” he reportedly said.
Giordano went on to allege that one biracial person was passed over for a promotion because he didn’t look African American.
“We wanted to hire somebody in the department … who was half black but didn’t like, appear half black and there was a creative executive who was like ‘We’re not, like, that’s not, that’s not what’s wanted,’” he claimed. “They wanted somebody in meetings who would appear a certain way and he wasn’t gonna bring that to the meeting.”

In the video, Giordano alleges that Disney attempts to prevent lawsuits by using euphemistic terminology. The company allegedly uses “code words and buzzwords that are used to explain what they’re looking for… so it’s not like a legally actionable thing,” the senior vice president explained. He did, however, say that Disney’s practices would likely eventually lead to a lawsuit.
O’Keefe reported that Disney also awards bonuses to executives based on whether they recruited enough employees from non-white backgrounds.

The allegations against Disney come as a wide array of companies have been caught discriminating against white and often Asian job applicants. Missouri Attorney General Andrew Bailey announced a lawsuit on Thursday against tech giant International Business Machines (IBM) over a policy of financially penalizing executives who did not recruit enough people from “underrepresented groups,” accusing the company of discriminating against whites, Asians, and men.
One Daily Wire investigation revealed that NASCAR hosted two different internships that explicitly listed certain racial backgrounds as program requirements, only omitting white people. A law professor told The Daily Wire that the program requirements were “blatantly illegal.”
Oracle hosted internship and scholarship opportunities that barred both whites and Asians, with approved racial groups being listed under the program’s “eligibility requirements,” another Daily Wire investigation found.
Another probe found that corporations from across different sectors, including Bayer Pharmaceuticals, US Bank, Best Buy, and Liberty Mutual, all participated in a training program from McKinsey and Company that barred white people based on their race.
