Sadly, it feels like the nerdiest, ugliest, meanest kids in the high school are trying to cancel the prom
it's so freaking petty to try to insult the writers.
I'm not sure how old he is, but I heard him use the word 'newfangled' one time, so he's gotta be pretty far gone.

[NAFDA] "There will be an occasional happy, so that it might be crushed under the boot of the writer." From Zorro to Angel (including Wonderfalls, The Inside and Drive), this is where Buffistas come to anoint themselves in the bloodbath.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
I dunno, it's not as if the writers haven't taken any jabs at the producers. It'd just be better if the latter could come up with an insult that was actually on target.
But, I guess they'd be writers if they could do that...

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.
In fairness, United Hollywood calls moguls greedy... But I'd very much define greed as a part of business. Although maybe I'm just a capitalist bastard at heart. (Send the children up the chimneys, chop chop!).
Fay, I think so. Not sure when I joined here, but I got involved with SERENITY back in 2003.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
I think the point is that we'll still get the public acknowledgement of the winners in the announcement format, but without the 20 minute montages of (e.g.) Cowboys On Film.
Yeah, I get it. I know I'm in the minority here, but I don't really care about the clothes and I kind of enjoy some of the montages and the nervous, rambly acceptance speeches. To me that's the part that celebrates the art and the people who make it.

I'm not sure IMDb news understands satire:
Jon Stewart became the first late-night TV host to express criticism of demands by the Writers Guild of America. Returning to the air Monday night without his writing staff, Stewart at one point ridiculed the WGA's demand to be paid for shows that are downloaded from the Internet. "If you download a show on an iPod, do you think people should get paid for that?" he asked. "If you were to walk [into] a Hickory Farm with cheese on a stick, you wouldn't pay for that. No -- that's promotional cheese. That's what a show on an iPod is, promotional cheese."
IT'S A JOKE.
