Re: Joseph Barbera
Oh well. Political cartoonist Martin Rowson has decided to pay tribute to him by thoroughly laying into Hanna Barbera.

Damn shame. I love Rowson's work, but on this I couldn't disagree more with him.

He claims H/B "effectively destroyed animation for at least two generations". That seems a pretty strange thing to say. Surely it could equally be argued that they effectively kept it going during the period when the industry was facing its biggest challenges.
