A Freudian slip: Some ex-EisnerCorp jerk selling another one of those repulsive pop-culture phenomema most people are sick and tired of from the get-go says it's "lowered the bar" on broadcast standards. Isn't that the wrong phrase, oh former EisnerCorp exec? You're supposed to say "pushed the envelope" (a phrase hijacked from the military to be another show-biz variation of "The public be damned!"). Why, oh wonderful exec, can't you clowns RAISE THE BAR for once?
