>Disney announced earlier this morning that, in the light of recent controversies, they will be officially changing the name 'Donald Duck' to 'Donnie Duck'.

We're willing to make the effort, however." The representative went on to describe the re-recording that a number of current cartoons are going through, including the Mickey Mouse shorts, "Mickey Mouse Clubhouse" for preschoolers, as well as "Mickey Mouse and the Roadster Racers", another upcoming program for young children.
>When pressed as to why the change was made, the representative refused to expand on the point.
Wow...
