Disney Kills Star Wars Expanded Universe...?

"I felt a great disturbance in the Force, as if millions of voices suddenly cried out in terror, and were suddenly silenced. I fear something terrible has happened."

Die hard fans expected this, but to actually (sort of ) see it in print is another thing all together. The children of Han Solo and Princess Leia..Shadows of the Empire..the many adventures of Dengar..Boba Fett paling around with the Sarlac Pitt...gone in the blink of an eye with one Tweet, possibly ending the existence of all Star Wars Expanded Universe stories.

A website with the amazing name TheHothSpot caught this story as the question was asked and answered via Twitter. Is the goal to have one cohesive universe (under Disney's direction)? Leland Chee, Continuity Database Administrator (aka keeper of the stories and where they fit in) for Lucasfilm Story Group answered "That's definitely a primary goal".
