Phillips was part of the "Family Values" crusade, so, logically, he is incapable of creating unbiased, coherent commentary on his subject. Of the books I looked at for writing my own "America 'Toons In", I found this book, and other, similar ones, to be, entirely, inflammatory pieces designed to cripple the American animation industry (Of course, he failed to do that...).

It was these kinds of hit jobs that prompted me to start writing critically about animation, and to expose this bias for what it is.
