I don't think the ability to communicate to a mass audience can be negatively correlated to INTELLIGENCE. The headline should read that music writers are getting SMARTER.
Gotta watch Happyish, episode two. They nailed this. Ad execs talking about how millenials want things "real" and how cartoon mascots should be replaced with real people who have real problems. It wasn't hilarious until I saw this fucking Hamburglar.
The UK seriously worries me. They do shit like this all the time. They're one of the fattest nation's in the world, and they seek to "honor fuller figured women"? Japan didn't get to be one of the thinnest nations in the world by honoring fuller figured women. They're aggressively anti-fat, and they start at birth. If a Japanese woman has a fat baby, she worries--and rightly so. Fat is a killer. The UK is actively killing itself with campaigns like this.
