This is out of an e-mail I received...


From a Japanese Production company trying to put together a documentary on the origin of RUDOLPH:
The decision has been made based on the negative response from the original book's copyright management, Character Arts, stating that they'd prefer to promote Rudolph as a myth or legend itself but not to promote its creator.(Their exact words were "Promoting Robert May as Rudolph's creator is like telling kids Santa Claus doesn't exist.") This conflicts our program's concept.

Absolutely, Absurd! Shame on ENTERTAINMENT RIGHTS. Kids do not watch documentaries about the creation of a character..adults do. Sounds like kids are running this company.
