Before anyone calls me a hater having a different point of view has nothing with being a hater. I read some of the comments on the last show and people were expressing their opinions. People like to throw those types of terms around when they don’t like what they hear or read. My opinion here is not an attack on anyone and it’s too bad that I need to even preface my opinion with this statement. I would never consider Spencer Kobren a hater in fact I applaud him for publishing his own book exposing the truth as he sees it.
Change in an industry rarely comes from the top down especially when those at the top are getting fat wallets. Change happens from the bottom up. Think of organization like MADD Mothers Against Drunk Driving or victims like Megan Kanka for which we have Megan’s law. Change is often forced by those that are so disgusted by what they see that they take the time to make others aware and industry is forced to make changes.
Rarely does a movie help change an industry. Even the movie most know Morgan Spurlock for “Super Size Me” has done little to diminish sales at McDonalds or change their methods and in my view the movie was a negative portrayal. It was only recently after there was such an uproar by the public in their use of pink slime when they were made aware of it that McDonalds was forced to make a small change. You see their marketing brilliance of being able to capture their consumer at a very young age and hold them for life is identical to the way medicine and doctors are marketed. They are the experts never question that piece of paper or that white coat. Hardly the truth in my opinion.
