Just spent the weekend at WDW and we have never seen August crowds this small. It looked like January! DW joke that the only people there where British or Floridians. The water parks were sparse on a perfect weekend. Epcot and the Epcot resorts where dead. I know things wind down when school starts, but there are a number of States where school would have started this week. In years past, WDW was hoping "the-week-before-school-starts".
But, I'm not sure it's anything Disney is doing/not doing that keeping them away. The casual Disney vacationer isn't going to be affected by the hours controversy, temoprarily closed resorts, etc.
If Vivendi lost multi-billions last quarter while Disney only made a smaller profit, I think we may want to count our blessings a little. DIS may being holding it's own in spited of ME and ABC.
