This one hurts because he really pushed an art form.
Cartoons were not at all well respected as a method of storytelling back in the day. And Walt threw himself into the fire pretty often to strike success and build the Disney empire.
Garrison Keillor
I don't enjoy or like public figures. Having never met them, I cannot like them. I do enjoy the works or products of some people, and knowing the person(s) who created something can influence my chances of consuming it.
There are some people who have done, or accused of doing bad things, but they have created works that I enjoyed.
AKA, I never "liked" Neil Gaiman. But I do like American Gods.

Not the fresh prince of slappy slappington. That's for sure.
I really liked Chappelle show, but he's really gone bad the last few years being anti trans and all. To say he's canceled is a bit much, though. He's still rich and popular, and selling tickets.
and him being in saudia arabia, and furthering his anti-trans comedy is just adding to the fire.
It's shocking to me how willing people are to hang out with Chappelle and even ride his dick, but I guess the Saudi thing showed that a lot of those folks who embed progressive values in their material are just playing characters.
anti-trans is popular with the right wingers, incel crowd.
Yeah but I mean outwardly progressive people with an entertainment career to think about.
