Interesting article. Nothing new there, though. There do seem to some underlying hints at greed and ethic questions. I will admit I have never liked the idea that boards in TV were always 100% Morse employees. That just never seemed right to me.
I can't say I'm particularly grateful to the Morses or even Schwartz. I do believe there was great vision and a marvelous ability to turn that vision into reality. It wasn't done for some altruistic dream -- it was done to make money and the Morses have done that quite well. This takes nothing away from TV and our love of TV. To me, loving TV doesn't mean I have to love the Morses or even be particularly thankful to them. I thank them daily every time I open my purse and purchase something. Kudos to the Morses for showing the American dream is still alive and well.
