Anonymous184497 - you're totally wrong. Sales had been off on the core businesses for 2 years prior to Learning Company. Jill Barad kept promising higher earnings per quarter to analysts, and then Mattel would lose money 8 quarters in a row. Wall Street quickly figured out she was either a liar (bad) or an idiot (worse). Getting rid of Jill was the best decision ever - perfect example of someone who was good in design floundering in management. Good thing Mattel doesn't have designers in management positions now leading brands... oops. #historyrepeatsitself.
