Acclaimed TV writer George Meyer, one of the key people behind the creation of The Simpsons, had this to say about advertising and its damaging effect on the show’s creativity. Talk about biting the hand that feeds you:
“Advertising always has a coarsening effect, and its inane monkey chatter makes your story less coherent. Advertising is a conscienceless industry, populated by cowards and idiots, that wraps and drains everyone. It eggs on the worst in all of us. If I could eliminate either advertising or nuclear weapons, I would choose advertising.”
