Now this is the perfect example of the hypocrisy of these TV producers. If you are not familiar with the Wire it portrays the drug war in the 90s. Baltimore is the central character. But in addition to drug gangs and a bureaucratic nightmare of a police department they portray every single politician as a liar and a fraud, likewise the school system is portrayed similarly, with the bureaucracy being the main reason for a failed system that is little more than baby sitting. A local dock union is shown to be in league with drug smugglers and killers. This TV show portrayed the city as a rat infested mess, either literally or figuratively. So this man made his fortune portraying Baltimore as a "rat infested mess" and when someone actually internalizes it he calls them a "racist moron". The show is famous for "telling the truth", and "telling it like it is".
Meanwhile, Mar-a-Logo has had over 70 sanitary violations due to infestations. I take it from your post that you're concerned about hypocrisy.
