Walt Disney is quite aware of the influence they have on their viewers and uses this to their advantage As Ward states in his book "the implication for Disney is that it needs to take extra care in what it does, because its tools are powerful, and it’s working with a vulnerable audience" (Annalee R.Ward, 2002). The main purpose behind Disney is not only to entertain kids but to educate them as well (Katherine van Wormer & Cindy Juby, 2015). Children grow into adults, who are fond of Disney because it shaped the way they think about the world" (Annalee R.Ward, 2002). It begins with the children, for whom Disney products are so powerful they teach life’s lessons. William Powers explains how Disney is conducting society though their power to shape kids into the adults with Disney values, he writes "Here is where we reach the absolute centre of Disney’s power. The Illuminati are using Disney to expose children to the occult society today’s kids are the adult citizens of future society’s new world order that the Illuminati plan to accomplish. It’s not only children who can be effected by such influence, but adults too can be subject to mind degeneration after so long. Therefore children who are repeatedly exposed to demonization can result in behaviour problems, leaving the child unable to distinguish between right and wrong (Gregory Fouts, 2006). The conspiracy zone clams that anyone no matter what age, can sometimes have trouble telling between what is real from what is fake when subject to tramendous amount of television and movies over long periods of time (The Conspiracy Zone, 2007). It is argued that the material that children view on television can have a big influence on their cognitive development "children in particular were vulnerable to movie effects, which could leave them prematurely ‘sophisticated’"(Nicholas Sammond, 1999). Within these movies, 18% of the main characters were viewed as being evil, portraying wickedness and other demonic characteristics (Gregory Fouts, 2006). Out of all Disney movies 74% consist of demonization.
