Talk show host who dissed Stan Lee: I think comics are important as sb culture

According to foreign media reports, American talk show host Bill Maher, who had previously satirized the recently deceased Marvel co-founder Stan Lee on his personal blog, caused great controversy. In a recent interview, he insisted on his statement, saying that he was not criticizing Stan Lee, but he himself had not read and looked down on the comics.

A few days ago, talk show host Bill Maher said on his blog that the whole world is mourning the death of Stan Lee, but comics are for children, they are not important or mature, and adults pretend that comic books are complex literary works, and everyone is using their intelligence on stupid things.

In response to this statement, Stan Lee Studio responded that the old man taught us many things, including tolerance and respect. Maheran has the right to express his opinions and can think that comics are for children, but as a working figure with a powerful platform, he should take more responsibility for his words and deeds.

Maher recently appeared on the Larry King show, where the comedian and political commentator remained stubborn about his views. During the show, Maher admitted that he didn't know much about Stan Lee or the comics themselves, but the huge outrage his views have aroused just proves his point.

"This just proves my point: Yes, I don't know much about Stan Lee, and I'm not criticizing him. I'm agnostic about Stan Lee," Maher said. "I don't read comics, not even when I was a kid (he said in a previous blog that he read them when he was a kid), but I mean, our culture that believes that comics and comic-based movies can make people reflect deeply on human nature is a dumb f**king culture, and people are angry about my saying that, which proves my point."

The view of the foreign media "WeGotThisCovered" is that when it comes to "proving a point", Maher insisted that comics cannot have depth after admitting that he did not understand them. This makes people believe that he is seeking attention, as many people think. When a public figure is very ignorant about something and refuses to apologize, they may not be sparking a rational conversation.
