This is the other petition that someone else made.  It's about Steve Whitmire, right after he was, for no particular reason at all, fired by Disney in October of 2016, but they did not want to report about it yet until later on in July of 2017.  And most of us huge fans were too shocked to hear about it.  And that was when, afterwards, Steve Whitmire was then replaced by Matt Vogel.  Now, again, as we all do know, that Steve Whitmire has been voicing and puppeteering Kermit the Frog since after Jim Henson died in 1990.

Now, I want to tell you, that when I first heard the new voice, I was not too happy with it at all, because it sounds like Constantine, the evil version of Kermit the Frog, in which, Matt Vogel also performed him in the 2014 movie Muppets Most Wanted.  And, to me, the new voice doesn't really sound like Kermit the Frog at all.  Now, for an example, when Kermit the Frog and his new voice visited the TV Show Dancing with the Stars shortly later on in October of 2017, fans on Twitter were not to happy with it at all, either.  Here are a couple of links, so that, you can see the whole article about it, along with the video clip, and 2 of those Twitter posts, for yourselves:
