Heh! It gets better than that. Turner sent a TV crew to Warner Bros.
Animation to interview some of the folks there who used to work for H-B
as part of some upcoming Hanna-Barbera retrospective. I've been keeping
someone I know there up to date on "SwatKats"/Turner happenings, and he
was asked to comment for the camera. He let me know that he told them
EXACTLY what he thought, and gave them both barrels. He knows Tony
Sgroi, so 'nuff said. He doubts his comments will see air, but at least
a few fairly key industry people heard them, not to mention the Turner crew.

I wonder what they think of publicity like _that_!
