Walt Disney CEO Bob Iger is reportedly skipping a meeting President Donald Trump had assembled for corporate leaders amid criticism of his executive order halting immigration and refugees from seven Muslim-majority nations.
The Hollywood Reporter said Iger's participation was criticized by some in the company, "especially animators."
The meeting will bring more than a dozen executives from the forum to the White House to discuss Trump's economic policy plans.
Uber CEO Travis Kalanick, another forum member, resigned Thursday after coming under heavy criticism.
Iger, a frequent Democratic donor who co-hosted a fundraiser for Hillary Clinton last summer, has described the advisory group as nonpartisan, the Los Angeles Times reported.
