Well you have to understand, without Harry Cohn of Columbia, we wouldn’t of gotten The Three Stooges.
People still cherish Marilyn Monroe, despite her personal life being shaky and having died over half a century ago.
Frank Sinatra spent much of his career in Hollywood and Vegas, and was associated with the Mob. Still, despite this, he had a long standing music career and his music is still heard to this day.
Then you have to account for Judy Garland, who played Dorothy in the Wizard of Oz, and the bad treatment she got from the studio system.
You go back further, you get Charles Chaplin, himself a bit of a weirdo despite being a legendary silent screen star.
Anyone who says Hollywood was innocent was flat out lying.

American society was starting to change around the 2000s. Don't get me wrong. I'm not talking about the economy as a whole, just the fast food business.
As someone who worked at McDonalds back in the mid - late 2000s, I can tell you from experience that as recently as that time, working for a number of these fast food companies was simply a better experience.
Now, in my late 30s, it's simply more comforting to spend time with my family at home than it is to bother with any of these big corporations out in public who just want your hard earned money. I used to love going out with friends, spend time at the bar or nightclub, or pay money at a restaurant for good food. Today that experience is mostly gone.
Being born in the early - mid 1980s, people like myself mostly keep a small group of friends and family. Gone are the days of having a big gathering at Pizza Hut, or Chuck E Cheeses. It was fun, I remember that experience back in the 90s.
Spending time at home, drinking beer and watching the Superbowl has been more fun than anything any fast food place has given me in over 10 years. The American corporate model has utterly killed Pizza Hat along with all the other fast food places.
You remember Ronald McDonald, and Dave from Wendy's trying to get you to try their products? That's all in the past now.
